The C++ typeid feature is returning an incorrect function signature string. The string returned from the typeid name() method is not distinguishing between functions with and without exception specifiers. ===== TEST CASE ===== ---------------------------------------------- extern int *withthrow() throw (); extern int *nothrow() ; std::string sg2 = typeid(withthrow).name(); std::string sf2 = typeid(nothrow).name(); printf("%s # %s\n", sf2.c_str(), sg2.c_str()); OUTPUT ===>> "int *() throw() # int *() throw()" ---------------------------------------------- extern int *withthrow() throw (); extern int *nothrow(); std::string sg2 = typeid(nothrow).name(); std::string sf2 = typeid(withthrow).name(); printf("%s # %s\n", sf2.c_str(), sg2.c_str()); OUTPUT ===>> "int *() # int *()" ----------------------------------------------
