Throw exception instead of pointer to exception

[flomnes]

Explanation

We don't catch AssertionError*, only AssertionError or references to AssertionError.

Code

#include <iostream>
#include <stdexcept>

int main()
{
    try
    {
        throw new std::runtime_error("nope");
    }
    catch (const std::runtime_error& re)
    {
        std::cout << "A " << re.what() << std::endl;
    }
    catch (std::runtime_error* re)
    {
        std::cout << "B " << re->what() << std::endl;
    }
}

Output

B nope
