Answer / vikas sood
throwing exception from a constructor is not bad at all. It
is actually advised to use exceptions when you fail to
create your object properly due to any reason. In this case
memory will not be allocated for the object and no
destructor will be called.

Throwing a exception from constructor is perfectly good
habit. That is how to handle errors in the constructor.
Smart pointers can also be used in this scenario.

Answer / shwetha.v.g
Actualy though when an object is created memory will b
allocated but the process of allocation of memory will be
complete only if conytructor is successfully invoked so if
constructor throws an exception memory will not be
allocated for that object.
