Return value

Exceptions
May throw implementation-defined exceptions.
Example
Run this code
#include <fstream> #include <iostream> #include <string> bool create_stream(std::ofstream& fs) { try { std::string some_name = "/tmp/test_file.txt"; std::ios_base::openmode some_flags = fs.trunc; // | other flags if (std::ofstream ts{some_name, some_flags}; ts.is_open()) { std::swap(ts, fs); // stream objects are not copyable => swap return true; } } catch (...) { std::cout << "Exception!\n"; } return false; } int main() { if (std::ofstream fs; create_stream(fs)) { // use fs stream } }
