Example
Run this code
#include <stdexcept> #include <iostream> int main() { std::string s("message"); // for capacity s = "abc"; s.at(2) = 'x'; // ok std::cout << s << '\n'; std::cout << "string size = " << s.size() << '\n'; std::cout << "string capacity = " << s.capacity() << '\n'; try { // throw, even if capacity allowed to access element s.at(3) = 'x'; } catch (std::out_of_range& exc) { std::cout << exc.what() << '\n'; } }
Output:
