They uses a function which returns true if all - data are valid, and returns false if any datum is invalid. This is called the - validator function, and the host class or function provides a pointer to it. - The validator could also assert for any invariant which fails rather than - return false. If the validator is a static member function, you can use it - with checkers in any function, but especially standalone functions and class - static functions. If the validator is a non-static member function, you can - use it only within non-static member functions. - - @par Exception Safety Levels - Years ago, David Abrahams formalized a framework for assessing the exception - safety level a function provides. His framework describes three levels of - guarantees. Any function which does not provide any of these levels is - considered unsafe. ContractChecker and StaticChecker determine a function's - safety level through the use of policy classes. Checker's policy classes can - show if a function provides any of these three guarantees. Since there is no - universal way to detect leaks, this facility provides no mechanism for finding - leaks, but users may create their own validators which do. StaticChecker's - policy classes only provide direct checking for the no-throw and invariant - guarantees. With some finesse, a programmer can write a validator for - StaticChecker that checks for the Strong guarantee. - - - No-throw guarantee: A function will not throw any exceptions. - - Strong guarantee: A function will not change data if an exception occurs. - (Which I call the no-change guarantee.) - - Basic guarantee: A function will not leak resources and data will remain - in a valid state if an exception occurs. (Which I call either the no-leak - or no-break guarantee depending on context.) - */ - -// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -/** @class CheckForNoThrow - - @par Exception Safety Level: - This exception-checking policy class for ContractChecker asserts if an - exception exists.
