Complete Modern C++ - Exception Handling - Part II (Multiple Catch Blocks)

The video tutorial explains exception handling in programming, focusing on the importance of matching catch blocks for each exception thrown. It provides examples of throwing exceptions when conditions are not met and handling memory allocation failures. The tutorial also covers using base type catch blocks to handle derived exceptions and discusses the use of universal catch blocks, highlighting their limitations. The video concludes with a brief mention of the next topic, stack unwinding.

What is the purpose of an 'all catch block'?

• To catch all exceptions without specific handling

• To handle only documented exceptions

• To log exceptions

• To terminate the program

Why should the 'all catch block' be avoided?

• It provides no information about the caught exception

• It is too complex to implement

• It is not compatible with all compilers

• It can only catch documented exceptions
