filesystem: Function remove_all_aux() with an argument of type system::error_code& can throw exception in case of filesystem error
| Reported by: | Owned by: | Beman Dawes | |

| Milestone: | To Be Determined | Component: | filesystem |
| Version: | Boost 1.47.0 | Severity: | Problem |
| Keywords: | exception, directory_iterator_construct, error_code | Cc: |
Description
Function remove_all_aux() calls non-exception safe fs::directory_iterator constructor (without argument of system::error_code& type).
For example, in case of free file descriptors lack in filesystem this constructor can throw an exception "Too many open files".
The better way is to use exception-safe overload of fs::directory_iterator constructor (with argument of system::error_code& type).
Possible fix is in attachment.
The issue is actual for any version from 1.47 to 1.50
