------- Additional Comments From zack at gcc dot gnu dot org 2004-03-09 04:45 ------- It appears to me that the original reporter wanted what() to return an "intelligible error message" a la icc's "bad allocation", rather than "St9bad_alloc" (which does communicate the same information but in a more cryptic fashion).
I do think there should be a place in the standard library for nice friendly names for exceptions (think strerror()), but I don't know if what() is that place. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14493 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You reported the bug, or are watching the reporter.
