Does it make sense to close the Serial object upon destruction ? #273

Closed Hish15 closed 2 years ago

The current behavior is to delete an underlaying pointer, this does the job, but can lead to an exception on some cases.

I realized that delete pimpl_ does call pimpl_ destructor which calls pimpl_::close.

It will crash if throw exception not been catched when delete pimpl_, how do you avoid this? @Hish15

Hello @sudotamm, I'm an user of this not a maintainer. What you say is right, the delete pimpl_ calls pimpl_::close which is not noexcept... You might want to open an issue/discussion
