}</pre>
</div><h4>Requirements:</h4>
<p>T must have accessible copy constructor and must not be a reference (there is no requirement that T's copy constructor does not throw.)</p>
<h4>Description:</h4>
<p>This class template is used to associate a Tag type with a value type T. Objects of type <span class="RenoLink">error_info</span>&lt;Tag,T&gt; can be passed to <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span> to be stored in objects of type boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span>.</p>
<h4>Usage:</h4>
<p>The header &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_error_info_hpp.html">boost/exception/error_info.hpp</a></span>&gt; provides a declaration of the <span class="RenoLink">error_info</span> template, which is sufficient for the purpose of typedefing an instance for specific Tag and T, for example:</p>
<pre>#include &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_error_info_hpp.html">boost/exception/error_info.hpp</a></span>&gt;
struct tag_errno;
typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink">error_info</span>&lt;tag_errno,int&gt; errno_info;</pre>
<p>Or, the shorter equivalent:</p>
<pre>#include &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_error_info_hpp.html">boost/exception/error_info.hpp</a></span>&gt;
typedef boost::<span class="RenoLink">error_info</span>&lt;struct tag_errno,int&gt; errno_info;</pre>
<p>This errno_info typedef can be passed to <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span> (#include &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_info_hpp.html">boost/exception/info.hpp</a></span>&gt; first) to store an int named tag_errno in exceptions of types that derive from boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span>:</p>
<pre>throw file_read_error() <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">&lt;&lt;</a></span> errno_info(errno);</pre>
<p>It can also be passed to <span class="RenoLink"><a href="get_error_info.html">get_error_info</a></span> (#include &lt;<span class="RenoLink"><a href="boost_exception_get_error_info_hpp.html">boost/exception/get_error_info.hpp</a></span>&gt; first) to retrieve the tag_errno int from a boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span>:</p>
<pre>catch( boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> &amp; x )
{
if( int const * e=boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="get_error_info.html">get_error_info</a></span>&lt;errno_info&gt;(x) )
....
}</pre>
<p>For convenience and uniformity, Boost Exception defines the following commonly used <span class="RenoLink">error_info</span> typedefs, ready for use with <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span>:</p>
