Detailed Description

This class is the base of all exceptions thrown by OpenWBEM code.

It cannot be constructed directly, only subclasses can be instantiated.

Creating a correct subclass is facilitated by the macros defined in this file.

Exceptions should be thrown by using one of the OWBI1_THROWBI1_* macros which inserts the file and line number among other helpful things.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OWBI1::Exception::Exception const char *  file,
int  line,
const char *  msg,
int  errorCode,
const Exception otherException = 0,
int  subClassId = UNKNOWN_SUBCLASS_ID
[protected]
 

Parameters:
file The filename of the code throwing the exception.
line The line of the code throwing the exception.
msg A human readable message associated with the exception.
errorCode A number identifying the specific error that caused this exception.
otherException A pointer to another exception. This allows for exception chaining, presumably otherException is the underlying cause that the current exception is being thrown. If otherException != 0, The new Exception instance will store and delete the result of calling otherException->clone(). otherException will not be saved.
subClassId Each subclass of Exception may create an id. getSubClassId() will return this value. You may pass UNKNOWN_SUBCLASS_ID if no id is required. OW Ids are be registered in OWBI1_ExceptionIds.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

Exception * OWBI1::Exception::clone  )  const [virtual]
 

Make a copy of this exception object.

If allocation fails, return 0. Subclasses need to override this function. This function must not throw. Here is an example of how to implement this in a derived class:

virtual DerivedException* clone() const { return new(std::nothrow) DerivedException(*this); }

Reimplemented in OWBI1::CIMException, OWBI1::OutOfBoundsException, OWBI1::DateTimeException, OWBI1::EnumerationException, OWBI1::LoggerException, OWBI1::NoSuchPropertyException, OWBI1::NoSuchQualifierException, OWBI1::NULLValueException, OWBI1::ContextDataNotFoundException, OWBI1::StringConversionException, and OWBI1::TypeMismatchException.

char * OWBI1::Exception::dupString const char *  str  ) 
 

Utility function to copy a string.

This function will not throw--if allocation fails, 0 is returned. The result must be free[]'d. if str == 0, 0 is returned. TODO: This function doesn't really belong on this class, but so far only this class and subclasses have a use for it.

Definition at line 70 of file OWBI1_Exception.cpp.

int OWBI1::Exception::getErrorCode  )  const
 

Returns the error code representing the error which occurred.

Code are unique only in the scope of the derived exception class. May return UNKNONWN_ERROR_CODE if the error is unavailable.

const char * OWBI1::Exception::getFile  )  const
 

Returns the file.

May return 0.

const char * OWBI1::Exception::getMessage  )  const [virtual]
 

Returns the message.

May return 0. This function will not throw. Derived class implementations must not throw.

e.g. "SocketException". Will not return 0. This function will not throw. Derived class implementations must not throw.
