RAII is a programming principle that states that a resource is tied to the lifetime of the object that acquired the resource. RAII is a powerful feature of the C++ language that really helps to set C++ apart from C, helping to prevent resource leaks and general instability.
In this recipe, we will dive into how RAII works and how RAII can be used to ensure that C++ exceptions do not introduce resource leaks. RAII is a critical technology for any C++ application and should be used whenever possible.
