An exception handling mechanism allows the procedure to raise an exception [2] if this precondition is violated, [1] for example if the procedure has been called on an abnormal set of arguments. The exception handling mechanism then handles the exception. [3] The precondition, and the definition of exception, is subjective.
The implementation of exception handling in programming languages typically involves a fair amount of support from both a code generator and the runtime system accompanying a compiler. (It was the addition of exception handling to C++ that ended the useful lifetime of the original C++ compiler, Cfront. [18]) Two schemes are most common.
The Perl mechanism for exception handling uses die to throw an exception when wrapped inside an eval {...}; block. After the eval, the special variable $@ contains the value passed from die. Perl 5.005 added the ability to throw objects as well as strings. This allows better introspection and handling of types of exceptions.
C# 3.0 introduced type inference, allowing the type specifier of a variable declaration to be replaced by the keyword var, if its actual type can be statically determined from the initializer. This reduces repetition, especially for types with multiple generic type-parameters , and adheres more closely to the DRY principle.
Note that the examples given there do not work as-is on modern Windows systems (post XP SP2) due to the changes Microsoft made to address the security issues present in the early SEH design. The examples still work on later versions of Windows if compiled with /link /safeseh:no. "win32: Safe Structured Exception Handling". Yasm manual.

A key mechanism for exception safety is a finally clause, or similar exception handling syntax, which ensure that certain code is always run when a block is exited, including by exceptions. Several languages have constructs that simplify this, notably using the dispose pattern , named as using , with , or try -with-resources.
