BOOST_REQUIRE_EXCEPTION( statement, exception, predicate )</H3>
<P class="first-line-indented">These tools are used to perform an exception
detection and validation check. Tools execute the supplied statement
and check that it throw the supplied exception (or one inherited from it)
and that the exception object comply to the supplied predicate. If the statement
throw any other unrelated exception, doesn't throw at all or predicate evaluates
to <I>false</I> with
caught exception, check fails. In comparison with BOOST_<level>_THROW
tools these tools allow to perform more fine grained checks, for example
that an expected exception has specific error message etc.</P>
<P class="first-line-indented">If check is successful, tools produce a confirmation
message. In case if no exception thrown it produces an
error message in a form "error in <test case name>: exception
<<I>exception</I>> expected. In case if exception does not comply to
specified predicate the tool produces an error message in a form "error
in <test case name>: incorrect exception
<<I>exception</I>> is caught.</P>
<P class="first-line-indented">The first parameter is the statement to execute.
Use block statement if you want to execute more than one statement. The second
parameter is an expected exception. The last third parameter is a predicate
function used to validate caught exception.</P>
