  22 <div class="RenoIncludeDIV"><div class="RenoAutoDIV"><h2>Integrating Boost Exception in Existing Exception Class Hierarchies</h2>
  23 </div>
  24 <p>Some exception hierarchies can not be modified to make boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> a base type. In this case, the <span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span> function template can be used to make exception objects derive from boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> anyway. Here is an example:</p>
  25 <pre>#include &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_all_hpp.html">boost/exception/all.hpp</a></span>&gt;
  26 #include &lt;stdexcept&gt;
  27
  28 typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span>&lt;struct tag_std_range_min,size_t&gt; std_range_min;
  29 typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span>&lt;struct tag_std_range_max,size_t&gt; std_range_max;
  30 typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span>&lt;struct tag_std_range_index,size_t&gt; std_range_index;
  31
  32 template &lt;class T&gt;
  33 class
  34 my_container
  35     {
  36     public:
  37
  38     size_t size() const;
  39
  40     T const &amp;
  41     operator[]( size_t i ) const
  42         {
  43         if( i &gt; size() )
  44             throw boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span>(std::range_error("Index out of range")) &lt;&lt;
  45                 std_range_min(0) &lt;&lt;
  46                 std_range_max(size()) &lt;&lt;
  47                 std_range_index(i);
  48         //....
  49         }
  50     };
  51 </pre>
  52 <p>The call to <span class="RenoLink"><a href="enable_error_info.html">enable_error_info</a></span>&lt;T&gt; gets us an object of <i>unspecified type</i> which is guaranteed to derive from both boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> and T. This makes it possible to use <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span> to store additional information in the exception object. The exception can be intercepted as T &amp;, so existing exception handling will not break. It can also be intercepted as boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> &amp;, so that <span class="RenoLink"><a href="tutorial_transporting_data.html">more information can be added to the exception at a later time</a></span>.</p>
