Well I watend to use yasnippet so here it is ;):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# -*- mode: snippet -*-
# name: tryw
# key: tryw
# contributor: Andrea Crotti
# --
try {
    `(or yas/selected-text (car kill-ring))`
} catch ${1:type} {

}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

this is even nicer, because it uses the selected text or the last killed
string if nothing is found.

Of course is a bit intrusive so another "normal" snippet is also needed.
And another problem is that the indentation is not correct.
Or better it is correct inside the try/catch but it's not automatically
indented in the rest of the C++ code...
