					Inheritance diagram

Member functions
	constructor   constructs a regex_error object
		      (public member function)
	operator=     replaces the regex_error object
		      (public member function)
	code	       gets the std::regex_constants::error_type for a regex_er-
     ror
		      (public member function)

     Inherited from std::runtime_error

     Inherited from std::exception

Member functions
	destructor   destroys the exception object
	[virtual]    (virtual public member function of std::exception)
	what	     returns an explanatory string
	[virtual]    (virtual public member function of std::exception)

Example
     // Run this code

      #include <iostream>
      #include <regex>

      int main()
      {
	  try
	  {
	      std::regex re("[a-b][a");
	  }
	  catch (const std::regex_error& e)
	  {
	      std::cout << "regex_error caught: " << e.what() << '\n';
	      if (e.code() == std::regex_constants::error_brack)
		  std::cout << "The code was error_brack\n";
	  }
      }

Possible output:
      regex_error caught: The expression contained mismatched [ and ].
      The code was error_brack
