std::throw_with_nested(3)      C++ Standard Libary     std::throw_with_nested(3)

NAME
     std::throw_with_nested - std::throw_with_nested

Synopsis
	Defined in header <exception>
	template< class T >			       (since C++11)
	[[noreturn]] void throw_with_nested( T&& t );

	If  std::decay<T>::type is a non-final non-union class type that is nei-
     ther
	std::nested_exception nor derived from std::nested_exception, throws  an
     exception of
	an  unspecified  type that is publicly derived from both std::nested_ex-
     ception and
	from std::decay<T>::type, and constructed from	std::forward<T>(t).  The
     default
	constructor of the nested_exception base class calls std::current_excep-
     tion,
	capturing  the currently handled exception object, if any, in a std::ex-
     ception_ptr.

	Otherwise, throws std::forward<T>(t).

	Requires that std::decay<T>::type is CopyConstructible.

Parameters
	t - the exception object to throw

Return value
	(none)

Example
	Demonstrates construction and recursion through a nested  exception  ob-
     ject.

     // Run this code

      #include <exception>
      #include <fstream>
      #include <iostream>
      #include <stdexcept>
      #include <string>

      //  prints  the  explanatory  string  of an exception. If the exception is
     nested,
      // recurses to print the explanatory of the exception it holds
      void print_exception(const std::exception& e, int level =  0)
      {
	  std::cerr << std::string(level, ' ') << "exception: " <<  e.what()  <<
     '\n';
	  try
	  {
	      std::rethrow_if_nested(e);
	  }
	  catch (const std::exception& nestedException)
	  {
	      print_exception(nestedException, level + 1);
	  }
	  catch (...) {}
      }

      //  sample function that catches an exception and wraps it in a nested ex-
     ception
      void open_file(const std::string& s)
      {
	  try
	  {
	      std::ifstream file(s);
	      file.exceptions(std::ios_base::failbit);
	  }
	  catch (...)
	  {
	      std::throw_with_nested(std::runtime_error("Couldn't open " + s));
	  }
      }

      // sample function that catches an exception and wraps it in a nested  ex-
     ception
      void run()
      {
	  try
	  {
	      open_file("nonexistent.file");
	  }
	  catch (...)
	  {
	      std::throw_with_nested(std::runtime_error("run() failed"));
	  }
      }

      // runs the sample function above and prints the caught exception
      int main()
      {
	  try
	  {
	      run();
	  }
	  catch (const std::exception& e)
	  {
	      print_exception(e);
	  }
      }

Possible output:
      exception: run() failed
       exception: Couldn't open nonexistent.file
	exception: basic_ios::clear
