Determining exception type after the exception is caught?

Question

Is there a way to determine the exception type even know you caught the exception with a catch all?

Example:

try
{
   SomeBigFunction();
}
catch(...)
{
   //Determine exception type here
}

Answer 1

You can actully determine type inside a catch(...), but it is not very useful:

#include <iostream>
#include <exception>

    class E1 : public std::exception {};
    class E2 : public std::exception {};

    int main() {
        try {
            throw E2();
        }
        catch( ... ) {
            try {
                throw;
            }
            catch( const E1 & e ) {
                std::cout << "E1\n";
            }
            catch( const E2 & e ) {
                std::cout << "E2\n";
            }
        }
    }
