Answer / som shekhar

When an exception is thrown from the object constructor,
then the destructor of the object wont be called. But to
undone all the things that happened in the c'tor before the
exception is thrown, you can make use of smart
pointer(either boost smart pointer or std auto pointer).

when an exception is thrown from the destructor the compiler
terminates the application.

So it is advisable not to throw an exception in the
destructor , better to do "something else".

Answer / akshay

constructor:
the destructors of all the member objects that were
correctly created are called, then code goes to the catch
statement if any

dtors:
legally allowed, however, it should be caught within the
function. if it is not caught, then it may lead to a call to
terminate() function. this call would happen in the case
when the destructor was itself called due to stack unwinding
happening because of another exception in probably some
other function.
