RE: [CsMain] How to make constructor fail?

[Ogles, D. <DO...@pe...>]

Well, IMHO the C++ way to do it would be using an exception. However, since
CS doesn't use exception handling (for portability, mostly), you're out of
luck. I suggest aborting the process or (preferably) moving your constructor
code that may fail into a separate init() function, which returns success or
failure.
