Runtime error exception

runtime_error


This class defines the type of objects thrown as exceptions to report errors that can only be determined during runtime.

It is used as a base class for several runtime error exceptions, and is defined as:
1
2
3
4
 
class runtime_error : public exception {
public:
  explicit runtime_error (const string& what_arg);
};


Its sibling class logic_error is used as a base for exceptions reporting an error that can be prevented before runtime.

Members

constructor
The constructor takes a standard string object as parameter. This value is stored in the object, and its value is used to generate the C-string returned by its inherited member what.


The class inherits the what member function from exception, along with its copy constructor and asignment operator member functions.
