Template:cpp/error/sidebar

Defined in header <exception>
class nested_exception;
(since C++11)

std::nested_exceptions is a polymorphic mixin class which can capture and store the current exception, making it possible to nest exceptions of arbitrary types within each other.

Member functions

constructs a nested_exception
(public member function of Template:cpp/error/exception/nested exception/title)
[virtual]
destructs a nested exception
(virtual public member function of Template:cpp/error/exception/nested exception/title)
replaces the contents of a nested_exception
(public member function of Template:cpp/error/exception/nested exception/title)
throws the stored exception
(public member function of Template:cpp/error/exception/nested exception/title)
obtains a pointer to the stored exception
(public member function of Template:cpp/error/exception/nested exception/title)
