<H2><A NAME="1">Adding data to exceptions</A></H2>
<P>The standard exception classes carry with them a single string as
data (usually describing what went wrong or where the 'throw' took
place). It's good to remember that you can add your own data to
these exceptions when extending the heirarchy:
</P>
<PRE>
using std::runtime_error;
struct My_Exception : public runtime_error
{
public:
My_Exception (const string& whatarg)
: runtime_error(whatarg), e(errno), id(GetDataBaseID()) { }
int errno_at_time_of_throw() const { return e; }
DBID id_of_thing_that_threw() const { return id; }
protected:
int e;
DBID id; // some user-defined type
};
