Arduino: Enabling exception handling

[grahamehorner]

please consider enabling exception handling, for better developer experience and allowing try { } catch(...) { } which would enhance overall stability and reduce code when developing libraries.

'exception handling disabled, use -fexceptions to enable'

I'm wondering if this will be implemented? I was rather surprised to find out exceptions are disabled.
Is there a specific reason for disabling?

Please look at enabling this. It should be part of the core. Thanks. PS: This is a vote to get it included ASAP! (Just in case that's not clear :) )

I would like to point out that exception handling increases RAM usage. It
may not be appropriate for all use cases, so enabling it is not as simple
as flipping a switch.

Temporarily assigning to @d-a-v to put the issue on the map, per his exception playground.

Any progress on this?

Hi, I'm also very interested on this.

[d-a-v]

There is some work about that in https://github.com/d-a-v/esp-quick-toolchain/

Exceptions now a menu option, closing.
