How do I write a ctor definition which has both throw and a member initialisation list? Is this correct?
ClassName::ClassName(int parameter): datamember_(parameter) throw(ExceptionType)

Please retag your question with the programming language you are using. – Darin Dimitrov Jul 31 '10 at 08:15

Why don't you look up such trivial stuff in your language reference manual? – starblue Jul 31 '10 at 08:18

The throw thing is part of the function declarator, therefore it should appear before the initialization list (the :).
ClassName::ClassName(int parameter) throw(ExceptionType) : datamember_(parameter) {
BTW, exception specification is deprecated in C++0x, and except throw() it is generally useless. See Should I use an exception specifier in C++?.

If throw is part of the function signature, does it mean that the following (declarations) are valid overloads (given that the above function exists): ClassName(int parameter) const throw(ExceptionType); ClassName(int parameter) throw(ExceptionType2); ClassName(int parameter) const throw(ExceptionType2); – The Void Jul 31 '10 at 08:47
