std::bad_weak_ptr - cppreference.com

class bad_weak_ptr;

(since C++11)

std::bad_weak_ptr is the type of the object thrown as exceptions by the constructors of std::shared_ptr that take std::weak_ptr as the argument, when the std::weak_ptr refers to an already deleted object.

std::bad_weak_ptr::bad_weak_ptr

bad_weak_ptr() noexcept;

(1) (since C++11)

bad_weak_ptr( const bad_weak_ptr& other ) noexcept;

(2) (since C++11)

Constructs a new bad_weak_ptr object with an implementation-defined null-terminated byte string which is accessible through what().

1) Default constructor.

2) Copy constructor. If *this and other both have dynamic type std::bad_weak_ptr then std::strcmp(what(), other.what()) == 0.

Parameters

other - another exception object to copy

std::bad_weak_ptr::operator=

bad_weak_ptr& operator=( const bad_weak_ptr& other ) noexcept;

(since C++11)

Assigns the contents with those of other. If *this and other both have dynamic type std::bad_weak_ptr then std::strcmp(what(), other.what()) == 0 after assignment.

Parameters

other - another exception object to assign with

Return value

*this

std::bad_weak_ptr::what

virtual const char* what() const noexcept;

(since C++11)

Returns the explanatory string.

Return value

Pointer to an implementation-defined null-terminated string with explanatory information. The string is suitable for conversion and display as a std::wstring. The pointer is guaranteed to be valid at least until the exception object from which it is obtained is destroyed, or until a non-const member function (e.g. copy assignment operator) on the exception object is called.

Notes

Implementations are allowed but not required to override what().
