Detailed Description

This exception is thrown when an internal error occurs.

This is likely to be the most "generic" error. It generally means that some unexpected situation was encountered for which there is no clear explanation available, or where the implementor is inclined not to reveal the exact nature of the error to the caller.

In general, this will be a fatal exception. However, it's conceivable that a clever handler could determine an alternative action rather than allow the software to completely shut down.


Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* Phx::InternalException::what  )  const throw () [inline, virtual]
 

Overloads the std::exception what() method to return a brief message.

In general, the message should be very short, usually just specifying the type of error. Any information about the cause of the error itself that is not useful for programatic purposes should be logged rather than returned in the exception.

Reimplemented from Phx::Exception.
