What problems lead Stroustrup to say C++ exceptions are "badly implemented in a lot of places"?

393 views Asked by At

A short while ago, @BjarneStroustrup said in his Meeting C++ 2016 Keynote (at 01:44:40, almost at the end, in a reply to a question about RTTI), that

RTTI is very badly implemented in a lot of places, and that's the same kind of problem as we have with exceptions. etc. etc.

What criticism has been levelled at implementations of exceptions in a "lot of places" that might lead to this strongly-worded conclusion? And What kind of places was Bjarne referring to?
