Defined in header <functional>
class bad_function_call;		(since C++11)

std::bad_function_call is the type of the exception thrown by std::function::operator() if the function wrapper has no target.

Inheritance diagram

Member functions

(constructor)	bad_function_call() (public member function)

std::bad_function_call::bad_function_call()

bad_function_call();

Constructs a new instance of std::bad_function_call.

Parameters

(none)

Exceptions

noexcept specification:  

noexcept

  

Inherited from std::exception

Member functions

(destructor) [virtual]	destructs the exception object (virtual public member function of std::exception)
what [virtual]	returns an explanatory string (virtual public member function of std::exception)

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <functional>
 
int main()
{
    std::function<int()> f = nullptr;
    try {
        f();
    } catch(const std::bad_function_call& e) {
        std::cout << e.what() << '\n';
    }
}

Output:

bad function call
