how to get message of catch-all exception [duplicate]

You can’t get any information out of the … catch block. That is why code usually handles exceptions like this:

try
{
    // do stuff that may throw or fail
}
catch(const std::runtime_error& re)
{
    // speciffic handling for runtime_error
    std::cerr << "Runtime error: " << re.what() << std::endl;
}
catch(const std::exception& ex)
{
    // speciffic handling for all exceptions extending std::exception, except
    // std::runtime_error which is handled explicitly
    std::cerr << "Error occurred: " << ex.what() << std::endl;
}
catch(...)
{
    // catch any other errors (that we have no information about)
    std::cerr << "Unknown failure occurred. Possible memory corruption" << std::endl;
}
