## Detailed Description

Exception description (API)

# Introduction

The Exception class groups all exceptions thrown by functions from the API. This virtual class is only useful to catch exceptions originating from one of those functions.

Remarks
  Copy construction is disabled.

# Example

try {
// do something
}
catch (Exception& exception) {
// Go through here if the exception comes from a function of the API
cerr << exception.what() << endl;
exit(1);
}
catch (...) {
// Go through here for all other system exceptions
cerr << Error("abnormal termination") << endl;
// We use the Error() in order to get the same kind of printing
exit(2);
}
