• out_of_range
• future_error(C++11)
• bad_optional_access(C++17)

• runtime_error

• range_error
• overflow_error
• underflow_error
• regex_error(C++11)
• tx_exception(TM TS)
• system_error(C++11)

• ios_base::failure(C++11)
• filesystem::filesystem_error(C++17)

• bad_typeid
• bad_cast

• bad_any_cast(C++17)

• bad_weak_ptr(C++11)
• bad_function_call(C++11)
• bad_alloc

• bad_array_new_length(C++11)

• bad_exception
• ios_base::failure(until C++11)
• bad_variant_access(C++17)

Member functions

(constructor)	constructs the exception object (public member function)
(destructor) [virtual]	destructs the exception object (virtual public member function)
operator=	copies exception object (public member function)
what [virtual]	returns an explanatory string (virtual public member function)
