Interesting.  Anyone else care to weigh in with an opinion?

I have a large application with "half-hearted" exception handling.
I have been toying for a long time with either making it robust with serious
exception handling (adding a lot more catches-throws, and Palm OS wrapper
functions that throw and such).  Or else just removing all the exception
handling and doing it all c-style (return codes, bleh) because it's a pain
on the other launch codes, possibly more memory-intensive and bigger
executable.
I've been coding in C++ forever, so obviously I'd prefer extensive exception
handling.
But perhaps on the Palm it's just not worth it?
