Is there a problem with using exception handling in the following format?

void func()
try
{
    //code that may throw exception
}
catch (exception& e)
{
    throw;
}

Because enclosing the try-catch block within another set of parentheses eliminated
my error.  One possible note of interest, this was in a template function.
