logic_error Class

The class serves as the base class for all exceptions thrown to report errors presumably detectable before the program executes, such as violations of logical preconditions.

Syntax

class logic_error : public exception {
public:
    explicit logic_error(const string& message);

    explicit logic_error(const char *message);

};

Remarks

The value returned by what is a copy of message.data.

Example

// logic_error.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc /GR
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main( )
{
   try
   {
      throw logic_error( "logic error" );
   }
   catch ( exception &e )
   {
      cerr << "Caught: " << e.what( ) << endl;
      cerr << "Type: " << typeid( e ).name( ) << endl;
   };
}
Caught: logic error
Type: class std::logic_error
