<div class="RenoIncludeDIV"><div class="RenoAutoDIV"><h2>Integrating Boost Exception in Existing Exception Class Hierarchies</h2>
</div>
<p>Some exception hierarchies can not be modified to make boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> a base type. In this case, the <span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span> function template can be used to make exception objects derive from boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> anyway. Here is an example:</p>
<pre>#include <<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_all_hpp.html">boost/exception/all.hpp</a></span>>
#include <stdexcept>
typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span><struct tag_std_range_min,size_t> std_range_min;
typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span><struct tag_std_range_max,size_t> std_range_max;
typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span><struct tag_std_range_index,size_t> std_range_index;
template <class T>
class
my_container
{
public:
size_t size() const;
T const &
operator[]( size_t i ) const
{
if( i > size() )
throw boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span>(std::range_error("Index out of range")) <<
std_range_min(0) <<
std_range_max(size()) <<
std_range_index(i);
//....
}
};
</pre>
<p>The call to <span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span><T> gets us an object of <i>unspecified type</i> which is guaranteed to derive from both boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> and T. This makes it possible to use <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator<<</a></span> to store additional information in the exception object. The exception can be intercepted as T &, so existing exception handling will not break. It can also be intercepted as boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> &, so that <span class="RenoLink"><a href="tutorial_transporting_data.html">more information can be added to the exception at a later time</a></span>.</p>
