Hi,

but why? You have RAII, use it. It's the proper way to deal with resource
cleanup.

struct _finally()
{
  _finally(std::function<void(void)> f) _f(f) : {}
  ~_finally() ( _f(); };
  std::function<void(void)> _f;
};

my_function() {
  // let's define our finally
  _finally f([](){
       cleanup();
  });

  try {
  } catch(...) {}
  // whatever.

} // here your _finally will be destroyed, which will call the d'tor
~_finally() and your lambda in d'tor will be called.
But this is a lazy bodge. You could nicely encapsulate your resource as a
class and get RAII out of the box.

BR,
Igor
