# basic_json::exception
```cpp
class exception : public std::exception;
```
This class is an extension of [`std::exception`](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/exception) objects with a
member `id` for exception ids. It is used as the base class for all exceptions thrown by the `basic_json` class. This
class can hence be used as "wildcard" to catch exceptions, see example below.
```plantuml
std::exception <|-- json::exception
json::exception <|-- json::parse_error
json::exception <|-- json::invalid_iterator
json::exception <|-- json::type_error
json::exception <|-- json::out_of_range
json::exception <|-- json::other_error
interface std::exception {}
class json::exception #FFFF00 {
+ const int id
+ const char* what() const
}
class json::parse_error {
+ const std::size_t byte
}
```
Subclasses:
- `parse_error` for exceptions indicating a parse error
- `invalid_iterator` for exceptions indicating errors with iterators
- `type_error` for exceptions indicating executing a member function with a wrong type
- `out_of_range` for exceptions indicating access out of the defined range
- `other_error` for exceptions indicating other library errors
## Member functions
- **what** - returns explanatory string
## Member variables
- **id** - the id of the exception
## Example
??? example
The following code shows how arbitrary library exceptions can be caught.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/exception.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/exception.output"
```
