| $ cat x.cpp
| struct Exception {
| static void raise () throw (Exception){ throw Exception(); }
| };
| $ g++ x.cpp
| x.cpp:2: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct Exception'
preferably
static void raise () throw (Exception){ throw Exception(); }
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"class 'Exception' is considered incomplete at this point, therefore
cannot be used as an exception type in an exception-specification.
We do not have carret diagnostic yet, but we can improve on the error
message :-)
