Remove exception specifications #633

Closed tkemmer closed 7 years ago

tkemmer commented 7 years ago

This patch removes all exception specifications (throw(something)) from BALL and VIEW. Exception specifications have been removed from the C++ standard a long time ago and cause a gazillion warnings. @anhi and @philthiel: Any objections?

That's perfectly fine with me!

I had to restore the specifications in the sip files as they seem to be required to allow named BALL exceptions (rather than "unknown exceptions") to be thrown in Python code. Now everything should work again.
