[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Plugins: Needless forward declaration of geany_load_module() (#1215)

[elextr]

Well, the intention of adding `noexcept` is to prevent exceptions escaping from C++ into C.  

The REAL problem with exceptions is is when one passes through some C code and back into C++ which catches it and continues to execute.  Who knows what state the data being manipulated by the C code will be in since it will never complete its execution.

If an exception tries to exit a noexcept function its an automatic terminate which tells the programmer they screwed up.
