------- Comment #7 from sebor at roguewave dot com 2008-07-18 22:11 ------- FYI: I discussed the wording briefly with Daveed (eccp returns true if and only if the class has a trivial ctor or the ctor has a throw() spec on it, for just this reason). We agree that the wording is unclear and should be tightened up. I plan to bring it up on the reflector and write up an issue if there's consensus on the intent (I hope you and/or Mark can help give guidance). That said, IMO, the ODR requirement is orthogonal and beyond question. I.e., the compiler must return the same result throughout the same program, although it should be allowed to return a "more correct" result by doing whatever magic it has at its disposal.
