I just recently learned about Scope Guard C++ idiom. Unfortunately I can’t find any good implementation of it.
Can anyone point me to some good and usable Scope Guard implementation in C++?
Thanks, Boda Cydo.

ScopeGuard has been included in the Loki library (advertised in Modern C++ Design by Andrei Alexandrescu, I’m sure you’ve heard of this great book), and is mature enough to be used in production code, imo.
Just to be clear: We’re talking about writing exception safe code using RAII.

Does ScopeGuard use really lead to better code?
