Currently it works fine when throwing with core.exception 
functions 'onXXXX', like explained in the wiki, for example:
---
break onFinalizeError
---

But I can't manage to break when a new Exception instance is 
thrown in the code:

---
throw new Exception("ouch");
---

none of the following GB commands work:

---
catch catch
catch throw
catch signal all
catch signal
---

It looks like there are some tricks, like put a break on the vtbl 
of the base throwable class (no quite sure about this to be 
honest...)

Does anyone manage this ?

it was almost that actually,
'break _d_throwc

Or you could break on a specific exception class's constructor.

This would be better.

1/ because I could propose a modifiable list of the exception 
kinds to track in the options).



How can I do that, for example with FileException class ?

 happens.

Ast visitor -> ThrowStatement -> detect class from token text -> 
break file:line ?
Puting BP manally is not an option. I ask this for GDB 
integration in my IDE ;)

Well, you look it up:
info func FileException

0x00000000005ff7c4  std.file.FileException.this(const(char[]), 
const(char[]), immutable(char)[], ulong)
0x00000000005ff89c  std.file.FileException.this(const(char[]), 
uint, immutable(char)[], ulong)
0x00000000006139ec  
std.stream.StreamFileException.this(immutable(char)[])

and then set either via a name or an address:
b std.file.FileException.this

or

b *0x5ff7c4

with the difference that the name version potentially sets 
multiple breakpoints and moves it just after the frame setup code.
