Notes
Because copying std::exception
is not permitted to throw exceptions, when derived classes (such as std::runtime_error) have to manage a user-defined diagnostic message, it is typically implemented as a copy-on-write string.
The Microsoft implementation includes non-standard constructors taking strings thus allowing instances to be thrown directly with a meaningful error message. The nearest standard equivalents are std::runtime_error or std::logic_error.
