I've a little experience with java style exceptions, but none with c++.
    I need to alter the ifstream to throw an exception once an end of
    file is reached.
    EG.
    MYifstream.get(char c) {
      ifstream::get(c);
      if (ifstream::gcount()==0) {
         "thow end of file exception"
      }
    }
    .. in use
    try {
    do { ifs.get(c); } while (c==' ');
    } catch {
      "end of file" exception
    } finally {
      ...
    }
