Bug 356908

Description Jens Elmenthaler 2011-09-07 06:32:00 EDT

Build Identifier: HEAD

In the following code, a false positive for "No return, in function returning non-void" is reported:

int testReturnChecker()
{
  throw 42;
  ;
}


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
This example may seem stupid at a first glance. However consider an application where you want to log each thrown exception. We do it by defining a macro like this

#defing MY_THROW(_e, _txt_expr) { \
  stringstream buffer; \
  buffer << _txt_expr; \
  log(_e, buffer.str(), __FILE__, __LINE__); \
  throw _e; \
}

For readability reasons, the caller should be able to terminate the call to MY_THROW with a trailing semicolon:

MY_THROW(e);
