I need to parse some INI files. To do this, I'm trying to use boost::property_tree
, but in my system exceptions are not allowed.
How can I disable the exception support when using boost::property_tree
?
If there's no way to do this, any recommendations for another library are very appreciated.
After the answer from @sehe, I tried this piece of code, but without success:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <boost/property_tree/ptree.hpp>
#include <boost/property_tree/ini_parser.hpp>
namespace boost {
void throw_exception(std::exception const& e) {
std::cerr << "Fake exception: " << e.what() << "\n";
std::exit(255);
}
}
class Foo {
public:
bool bar(const std::string file_name) {
boost::property_tree::ptree prop_tree;
boost::property_tree::read_ini(file_name, prop_tree);
return !prop_tree.empty();
}
};
The compilation line code uses the following parameters:
-c -DBOOST_USER_CONFIG="<user.hpp>" -DBOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS -DBOOST_EXCEPTION_DISABLE -I.\toolchain\boost -I.\include Foo.cpp
And finally, the user.hpp
file:
#define BOOST_HAS_NRVO
#define BOOST_NO_COMPLETE_VALUE_INITIALIZATION
#define BOOST_NO_CXX11_AUTO_DECLARATIONS
#define BOOST_NO_CXX11_AUTO_MULTIDECLARATIONS

#define BOOST_NO_CXX11_VARIADIC_TEMPLATES
#define BOOST_NO_SFINAE_EXPR
#define BOOST_NO_TWO_PHASE_NAME_LOOKUP
Some errors returned by compiler:
"boost/optional/optional.hpp", line 1047: Error: #312: no suitable user-defined conversion from "boost::bad_optional_access" to "const std::exception" exists
throw_exception(bad_optional_access());
^
"boost/property_tree/string_path.hpp", line 221: Error: #312: no suitable user-defined conversion from "boost::property_tree::ptree_bad_path" to "const std::exception" exists
BOOST_PROPERTY_TREE_THROW(ptree_bad_path("Path syntax error", *this));
^
"boost/property_tree/detail/ptree_implementation.hpp", line 78: Error: #742: namespace "boost" has no actual member "iterator_core_access"
friend class boost::iterator_core_access;
^
PS: I'm not using a widely-available standard compiler, but it's successfully compiling the boost::smart_ptr
, using the same process described above.

You can configure Boost Exception to not use exceptions:
You need to define BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS
and further implement your own C-style exception handling function, like e.g.
void throw_exception(std::exception const& e) {
std::cerr << "Fake exception: " << e.what() << "\n";
std::exit(255);
}
#define BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/property_tree/ini_parser.hpp>
namespace boost {
void throw_exception(std::exception const& e) {
std::cerr << "Fake exception: " << e.what() << "\n";
std::exit(255);
}
}
using namespace boost::property_tree;
int main() {
ptree pt;
read_ini(std::cin, pt);
write_ini(std::cout, pt.get_child("section5"));
}
Compiled with
g++ -std=c++11 -O3 -Wall -pedantic main.cpp -fno-exceptions
This prints
./test <<< "[section1]"
Fake exception: No such node (section5)
