## Detailed Description

All exceptions thrown by Xapian are subclasses of Xapian::Error.

This class can not be instantiated directly - instead a subclass should be used.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ Error()

Xapian::Error::Error | ( | const Error & |  | ) |
| default

Default copy constructor.

We explicitly specify this to avoid warnings from GCC 9 (from -Wdeprecated-copy which is enabled by -Wextra).

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ get_context()

const std::string & Xapian::Error::get_context | ( |  | ) | const
| inline noexcept

Optional context information.

This context is intended for machine use (for example to know which remote server an error came from), but it is typically a plain-text string, and so also fit for human consumption.

## ◆ get_error_string()

const char * Xapian::Error::get_error_string | ( |  | ) | const

Returns any system error string associated with this exception.

The system error string may come from errno, h_errno (on UNIX), or GetLastError() (on MS Windows). If there is no associated system error string, NULL is returned.

The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:
