[LLVMdev] "LLVM powered Mono"

[Yanko Hernández]

Sorry for being a newbie on the matter, but could someone explain the
comment (in response to: "Considering it [LLVM] supports three other
languages with try/catch clauses just fine (C++, Ada, and now, Java),
I think it would be incorrect to say "it is not able to support some
of the features"."):
------------------------------
The issue is that the exception handling as implemented by LLVM
implements the C++ ABI which is different from Mono's exception
handling.

It does not seem like this will change anytime soon.
------------------------------

Is llvm exception handing general enough to support mono? Is there any
drawbacks to use llvm exception handling instead of mono's?
