- /** \brief Exception handling standard UNIX errors (errno)
+ The senf::SystemException class and it's derived class template senf::ErrnoException are used to
+ signal generic system failures based on \c errno codes.
+
+ senf::SystemException is a generic \c errno based exception which carries an error number and
+ origin information. senf::ErrnoException is a derived class specialized for a specific error
+ code. This simplifies managing error conditions:
+
+ \code
+ try {
+ something.open(path);
+ // ...
+ }
+ catch (senf::ErrnoException<ENOFILE> & e) {
+ // Create new file
+ }
+ catch (senf::SystemException & e) {
+ // Catch all other system exceptions
+ std::cerr << "Error accessing '" << path << "': " << e.what() << std::endl;
+ }
+ \endcode
- This exception is thrown to signal generic errno failures.
+ This exception is normally thrown using the senf::throwErrno() helper:
- \todo make where and err accessors and make the member vars private
+ \code
+ if ((fd = ::open(path.c_str(), O_RDWR)) < 0)
+ senf::throwErrno("::open()");
+ \endcode
- \idea Add a template class derived from SystemException which
- takes the error number as a numeric argument. This allows
- catching specific errno conditions: ErrnoException<EPIPE> etc.
+ The senf::throwErrno() helper will throw the correct exception class based on some \c errno
+ value.

+ /** \brief Exception handling standard UNIX errors (errno)
- \idea Add a generic error thrower which takes the origin
- string and errno value as an argument and will throw a
- corresponding template class instance. This would just be a
- big switch statement containing all possible errno values,
- probably created using some macro metaprogramming.
+ This exception is thrown to signal generic \c errno failures.
+
+ This exception cannot be thrown directly. Instead the derived class ErrnoException should be
+ thrown via one of the senf::throwErrno helpers.
+
+ The error message associated with the SystemException may be extended arbitrarily by using
+ the exception like a stream:
+ \code
+ try {
+ // This throw would normally be within some function called from here.
+ senf::throwErrno("::open()");
+
+ // Or you may want to use a more descriptive argument string:
+ senf::throwErrno("::open(\"" + filename + "\")");
+
+ // Or even use boost::format here
+ senf::throwErrno((boost::format("::open(\"%s\")") % filename).str());
+ }
+ catch (SystemException & e) {
+ // You can add further error information later by catching and re-throwing the exception
+ e << " [while operating on user '" << user << "']";
+ throw;
