Take this example:

# Here, I have temporarily disabled the compiler checks ensuring 
# that raised objects derive from System.Exception in order to test
# that the exception is wrapped at runtime (For testing purposes only!).
# Under normal conditions, Boo prevents you from doing this (and will continue to do so)
# This can be simulated by throwing from a C++ assembly (the C++/CLI compiler does not
# enforce CLS-compliant exceptions
 
class Test:
        override def ToString():
                return "Tres"

try:
        raise Test()
except ex:
        print "Caught!"
        print ex

In this example the exception will not be caught. The remedy is to emit the RuntimeCompatibilityAttribute(WrapNonExceptionThrows=true).
