--- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -103,6 +103,15 @@ This makes the error and print_usage functions in C++ work more like the corresponding functions in the scripting language. + ** The default error handlers in liboctave have been updated to use + exceptions. After displaying an error message they no longer return + control to the calling program. The error handler function can be + customized through the global variables "current_liboctave_error_handler" + and "current_liboctave_error_with_id_handler". If a programmer has + installed their own custom error handling routines when directly linking + with liboctave then these must be updated to throw an exception and + not return to the calling program. + ** New configure option, --enable-address-sanitizer-flags, to build Octave with memory allocator checks (similar to those provided by valgrind) built in.
