But its entirely feasible to use the mongo-c-driver #define's to drill in exceptions into ruby bindings, and throw ruby exceptions from C modules. Note that the mongo-c-driver uses MONGO_TRY ... MONGO_CATCH ... MONGO_THROW in only a few places, and (I'll bet) none of those places are nested. With C -> RUBY exception transfers all exception handling will be nested to accomplish the transfer. hth 73 de Jeff ______________________________________________________________________ RPM Package Manager http://rpm5.org Developer Communication List rpm-devel@rpm5.org
