exception handling problem

[__PPS__]

use stdexcept:

#include <stdexcept>
throw std::invalid_argument("Invalid command");

and

...
}catch(const std::exception& e){
cout << e.what() << endl;
}

Hi

I have function:

control_input(string input){
if(input!="open"){
throw "Invalid command";
}
}

and i call it in main:

int main(){
string input;

cin<<input;

try{
control_input(input);
}
catch(strin e){
cout<<e<<endl;
}

return 0;
}

For some reason that does not work. If it is time to catch exception, my
program ends with that kind of message:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std:ut_of_range'
what(): basic_string::at
Aborted

What is wrong and how to make it work correctly?

You're not throwing a string (or even a std::string), you're throwing a
const char*

Oh, and there are no default return types in c++, control_input must
declare what type it returns.

control_input(string input){
if(input!="open"){
throw "Invalid command";
}
}

and i call it in main:

int main(){
string input;

cin<<input;

try{
control_input(input);
}
catch(strin e){
cout<<e<<endl;
}

return 0;
}

I would argue that this is not the same code as the one you're
compiling, more likely a retype with typos, which will not compile.

You're not throwing a string (or even a std::string), you're throwing a

const char*

which means you have to throw like this:

throw string("ERROR: UFO found...");
