Detailed Description

Base class for all exceptions.

This is the base class for all exceptions used in the system. It provides an interface to get a (hopefully detailed) textual description of the exception, and a tag describing the type of exception. Further functionality will be provided by subclassers

const throw () [inline, virtual]

Get a string describing what happened that threw the exception.

Reimplemented in wibble::exception::BadOption, wibble::exception::Consistency, wibble::exception::BadCast, wibble::exception::OutOfRange, wibble::exception::ValOutOfRange< C >, wibble::exception::System, wibble::exception::File, and wibble::exception::Regexp.

virtual const std::string& wibble::exception::Generic::fullInfo

(

)

const throw () [inline, virtual]

Format in a string all available information about the exception.

The formatted version is cached because this function is used to implement the default what() method, which needs to return a stable c_str() pointer.

References desc(), wibble::exception::Context::formatContext(), and m_formatted.
