[edit] Helper classes

extends the type trait std::is_error_condition_enum to identify the the std::errc values as error conditions
(function template)

[edit] Non-member functions

constructs an std::errc error code
(function)
constructs an std::errc error condition
(function)

[edit] Example

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
int main()
{
    try {
        std::thread().detach(); // detaching a not-a-thread
    } catch (const std::system_error& e) {
        std::cout << "Caught a system_error\n";
        if(e.code() == std::errc::invalid_argument)
            std::cout << "The error condition is std::errc::invalid_argument\n";
        std::cout << "the error description is " << e.what() << '\n';
    }
}

Output:

Caught a system_error
The error condition is std::errc::invalid_argument
the error description is Invalid argument
