Proposal

I propose the following changes to the AIPS++ treatment of exceptions.

1.

That an exception hierarchy like the one I outlined be created.

2.

That existing exception classes gradually be removed during maintenance.

3.

That the (potential) catcher of an exception determines when a new exception class should be created.

4.

That a #define be created so that all exceptions may be caught both with our exception emulation and ``real'' exceptions.

5.

That error strings in exceptions directly from a throw have a standard format that contains the throwing function's name.
