Detailed Description

The exception handling classes.

These classes are thrown by their respective subsystems when an error occurs.

Features of the exception classes:

• global error state translated to descriptive error message
• std::exception inheritance for easy exception capture

Using the exception handling classes:

 int result = read(socket, buffer, length, 0);
 if (result == -1)
   throw socket_exception();
