C++ programmer's guide to undefined behavior: part 8 of 11

Your attention is invited to the eighth part of an e-book on undefined behavior. This is not a textbook, as it's intended for those who are already familiar with C++ programming. It's a kind of C++ programmer's guide to undefined behavior and to its most secret and exotic corners. The book was written by Dmitry Sviridkin and edited by Andrey Karpov.

C++ programmer's guide to undefined behavior: part 8 of 11

by Dmitry Sviridkin

From the article:

To avoid issues, use conditional noexcept always and everywhere and carefully check every function you use. Or don't use noexcept at all. In the second case, however, it's worth remembering that both move operations and swap should be marked as noexcept (and really be noexcept!) to effectively work with standard containers. Don't forget to write negative tests. You may miss a false noexcept and get std::terminate in the release build without them.
