Helper classes

error_code() noexcept;	(1)	(since C++11)
error_code( int ec, const error_category& ecat ) noexcept;	(2)	(since C++11)
template< class ErrorCodeEnum > error_code( ErrorCodeEnum e ) noexcept;	(3)	(since C++11)

Constructs new error code.

1) Constructs error code with default value. Equivalent to error_code(0, std::system_category()).

2) Constructs error code with ec as the platform-dependent error code and ecat as the corresponding error category.

3) Constructs error code from an error code enum e. Equivalent to make_error_code(e), where make_error_code is found by argument-dependent lookup. This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value is true.

Parameters

ec	-	platform dependent error code to construct with
ecat	-	error category corresponding to ec
e	-	error code enum to construct with

Notes

The ADL-found make_error_code is intended to be used in the original proposal N2422, and used by all known implementations. However, the standard requires that only std::make_error_code overloads are considered. This is LWG issue 3629.
