current_exception_diagnostic_information

# Boost Exception

### current_exception_diagnostic_information

#include <boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp>

    namespace
    boost
        {
        std::string current_exception_diagnostic_information();
        }

#### Requirements:

This function must not be called outside of a catch block.

#### Returns:

If the current exception object can be converted to boost::exception or std::exception, this function returns the same string value returned by diagnostic_information for the current exception object. Otherwise, an unspecified non-empty string is returned.

Typical use is to call current_exception_diagnostic_information from a top-level function to output diagnostic information about unhandled exceptions:

    int
    main()
        {
        try
            {
            run_program();
            }
        catch(
        error & e )
            {
            //handle error
            }
        catch(
        ...)
            {
            std::cerr << "Unhandled exception!" << std::endl <<
                boost::current_exception_diagnostic_information();
            }
        }
