error_code Class
Represents low-level system errors that are implementation-specific.
Syntax
class error_code;
Remarks
An object of type error_code class stores an error code value and a pointer to an object that represents a category of error codes that describe reported low-level system errors.

assign
Assigns an error code value and category to an error code.
void assign(value_type val, const error_category& _Cat);
Parameters
val
The error code value to store in the error_code.
_Cat
The error category to store in the error_code.
Remarks
The member function stores val as the error code value and a pointer to _Cat.
category
Returns the error category.
const error_category& category() const;
Remarks
clear
Clears the error code value and category.
clear();
Remarks
The member function stores a zero error code value and a pointer to the generic_category object.
default_error_condition
Returns the default error condition.
error_condition default_error_condition() const;
Return Value
The error_condition specified by default_error_condition.
Remarks
This member function returns category().default_error_condition(value()).
error_code
Constructs an object of type error_code.
error_code();
error_code(value_type val, const error_category& _Cat);
template <class _Enum>
error_code(_Enum _Errcode,
typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<_Enum>::value,
error_code>::type* = 0);
Parameters
val
The error code value to store in the error_code.
_Cat
The error category to store in the error_code.
_Errcode
The enumeration value to store in the error_code.
Remarks
The first constructor stores a zero error code value and a pointer to the generic_category.
The second constructor stores val as the error code value and a pointer to error_category.
The third constructor stores (value_type)_Errcode as the error code value and a pointer to the generic_category.
message
Returns the name of the error code.
string message() const;
Return Value
A string representing the name of the error code.
Remarks
This member function returns category().message(value()).
operator==
Tests for equality between error_code objects.
bool operator==(const error_code& right) const;
Parameters
right
The object to be tested for equality.
Return Value
true if the objects are equal; false if objects are not equal.
Remarks
The member operator returns category() == right.category() && value == right.value().
operator!=
Tests for inequality between error_code objects.
bool operator!=(const error_code& right) const;
Parameters
right
The object to be tested for inequality.
Return Value
true if the error_code object is not equal to the error_code object passed in right; otherwise false.
Remarks
The member operator returns !(*this == right).
operator<
Tests if the error_code object is less than the error_code object passed in for comparison.
bool operator<(const error_code& right) const;
Parameters
right
The error_code object to be compared.
Return Value
true if the error_code object is less than the error_code object passed in for comparison; Otherwise, false.
Remarks
The member operator returns category() < right.category() || category() == right.category() && value < right.value().
operator=
Assigns a new enumeration value to the error_code object.
template <class _Enum>
typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<_Enum>::value, error_code>::type&
operator=(_Enum _Errcode);
Parameters
_Errcode
The enumeration value to assign to the error_code object.
Return Value
A reference to the error_code object that is being assigned the new enumeration value by the member function.
Remarks
The member operator stores (value_type)_Errcode as the error code value and a pointer to the generic_category. It returns *this.
operator bool
Casts a variable of type error_code.
explicit operator bool() const;
Return Value
The Boolean value of the error_code object.
Remarks
The operator returns a value convertible to true only if value is not equal to zero. The return type is convertible only to bool, not to void * or other known scalar types.
value
Returns the stored error code value.
value_type value() const;
Return Value
The stored error code value of type value_type.
value_type
A type that represents the stored error code value.
typedef int value_type;
Remarks
This type definition is a synonym for int.
