解决方法@H_502_14@

因为C是静态类型的,你必须抓住已知的类型.但是,您可以调用外部函数(或一组函数),它们在您调用它们时处理异常类型未知.如果这些处理程序都具有已知类型,那么可以注册它们进行动态尝试.

struct myStupidCustomString {
  myStupidCustomString(char const *what) : what (what) {}
  char const *what;
};

void throws() {
  throw myStupidCustomString("here is some really useful information");
}

// The external library can provide a function,or you can provide a wrapper,which
// extracts information from "unknown" exception types.
std::string extract_from_unknown_external_exception() {
  try { throw; }
  catch (myStupidCustomString &e) {
    return e.what;
  }
  catch (...) {
    throw;  // Rethrow original exception.
  }
}

Use：

void example() {
  try { throws(); }
  catch (...) {
    try {
      std::string extracted = extract_from_unknown_external_exception();
      std::cout << "extracted: " << extracted << '\n';
    }
    catch (...) {
      // Chain handlers for other types; e.g. exception types from other libraries.
      // Or do something generic for the unknown exception.

      // Or rethrow the original unknown exception:
      throw;
    }
  }
}

Handler chain：

typedef std::string Extract();
std::vector<Extract*> chain (1,&extract_from_unknown_external_exception);
// Chain would normally be initialized using whatever scheme you prefer for
// initializing global objects.
// A list or other container (including a manual linked list that doesn't
// require dynamic allocation) may be more appropriate,depending on how you
// want to register and unregister handlers.
std::string process_chain() {
  for (std::vector<Extract*>::iterator x = chain.begin(); x != chain.end(); ++x) {
    try {
      return (*x)();
    }
    catch (...) {}  // That handler couldn't handle it.  Proceed to next.
  }
  throw;  // None could handle it,rethrow original exception.
}

void example() {
  try { throws(); }
  catch (...) {
    try {
      std::string extracted = process_chain();
      std::cout << "extracted: " << extracted << '\n';
    }
    catch (...) {
      throw;  // Rethrow unknown exception,or otherwise handle it.
    }
  }
}
