STD::EXCEPTION_PTR(3)

💖 NAME 💖

std::__unspecified__::exception_ptr — an opaque pointer to an arbitrary exception. That's it, that's the whole vibe. It points at some exception, doesn't tell you which, keeps it mysterious. Main character energy fr. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <exception>

👑 Public Member Functions

okay bestie, here's the whole roster of things this type can do, no skips, no cuts:

• constexpr exception_ptr (const exception_ptr &) noexcept — copy constructor, and it's constexpr and noexcept because of course it is 💅
• constexpr exception_ptr (exception_ptr &&__o) noexcept — move constructor. It takes __o and it moves. Slay.
• constexpr exception_ptr (nullptr_t) noexcept — build one from nullptr_t. Yes, from the literal null pointer type. Iconic.
• const class std::type_info * __cxa_exception_type () const noexcept — hands you back a const class std::type_info *, and it's const noexcept because it's not out here starting drama.
• constexpr operator bool () const noexcept — lets you use it in a boolean context, constexpr and noexcept, so you can vibe check it.
• constexpr exception_ptr & operator= (const exception_ptr &) noexcept — copy assignment, returns a reference to yourself, constexpr, noexcept.
• constexpr exception_ptr & operator= (exception_ptr &&__o) noexcept — move assignment, takes __o, returns exception_ptr &, constexpr, noexcept.
• constexpr void swap (exception_ptr &) noexcept — swaps, returns void, constexpr, noexcept. Very demure, very mindful.

🫶 Friends

these ones are friends, not members, so they get to hang out in the class's inner circle:

• constexpr friend bool operator== (const exception_ptr &, const exception_ptr &) noexcept=default — the equality bestie. constexpr, friend, bool, noexcept=default. She's defaulted and she's thriving.
• exception_ptr std::current_exception () noexcept — returns the exception_ptr for whatever exception is happening right now, noexcept.
• template<typename _Ex> constexpr exception_ptr std::make_exception_ptr (_Ex) noexcept — templated on _Ex, constexpr, noexcept, and it makes you an exception_ptr out of an _Ex. Chef's kiss. 🎀
• void std::rethrow_exception (exception_ptr) — takes an exception_ptr, returns void, and throws that exception back out into the world. Chaotic but valid.
• constexpr void swap (exception_ptr &__lhs, exception_ptr &__rhs) — the free-function swap, takes __lhs and __rhs, returns void, constexpr.

🌸 Related Symbols

(Note that these are not member symbols.) — like, they're adjacent, they're in the group chat, but they are not members. Respect the boundary.

• constexpr void swap (exception_ptr &__lhs, exception_ptr &__rhs) — yeah, she shows up twice. Once as a friend, once here. She contains multitudes. 💜

⭐ Detailed Description ⭐

An opaque pointer to an arbitrary exception.

The actual name of this type is unspecified, so the alias std::exception_ptr should be used to refer to it. Like, the real name is a secret, okay?? Don't try to @ her directly, just use the alias. iykyk. 🙈

Since

C++11 (but usable in C++98 as a GCC extension) — so yes, she's a modern girl but she can time-travel back to C++98 if GCC lets her. Lowkey iconic.

k byeeee bestie, this page came to you from libstdc++ and it lives at std::__uns...ception_ptr(3) — the manpage name got truncated mid-word and we respect that choice 🫶 go forth and catch them all 💖
