NAME¶

std::make_error_code(std::io_errc) - std::make_error_code(std::io_errc)

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <ios>
std::error_code make_error_code( std::io_errc e ) noexcept; (since C++11)

Constructs an std::error_code object from a value of type std::io_errc as if by
return std::error_code(static_cast<int>(e), std::iostream_category()). This function
is called by the constructor of std::error_code when given an std::io_errc argument.

Parameters¶

e - error code number

Return value¶

A value of type std::error_code that holds the error code number from e associated
with the error category "iostream".

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <system_error>
int main()
{
std::error_code ec = std::make_error_code(std::io_errc::stream);

// This works because of the overloaded method
// and the is_error_code_enum specialization.
ec = std::io_errc::stream;

std::cout << "Error code from io_errc::stream has category "
<< ec.category().name() << '\n';
}

Output:¶

Error code from io_errc::stream has category iostream
