Stringstream error: cannot access private member declared in class 'std::basic_ios<_Elem,_Traits>'

问题

In creating a simple exception class extension (where I can construct error messages more easily), I've isolated an error down to the following simple code:

#include <sstream>
#include <string>
class myCout {
public:
    std::stringstream ssOut;    // Removing this gets rid of error
    template <typename T> myCout& operator << (const T &x) {
        // Do some formatting
        return *this;
    }
};

class myErr : public myCout {
public:
    using myCout::operator<<;
};

int main(int argc, const char* argv[]) {
    throw myErr() << "ErrorMsg" << 1;
    myCout() << "Message Will Be Formatted";
    return 0;
}

Which, on compiling, produces this error:

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\sstream(724): error C2248: 'std::basic_ios<_Elem,_Traits>::basic_ios' : cannot access private member declared in class 'std::basic_ios<_Elem,_Traits>'

1>              _Alloc=std::allocator<char>
1>          ]

(In actual fact it's more complex and extends stuff like std::runtime_error)

I have seen previous answers which state the problem arises from not passing streams by reference, but I can't see how I'm not.

Commenting out the std::stringstream ssOut fixes the issue. Why, and how do I fix the underlying problem?

回答1:

You're throwing the exception by value, which is indeed recommended practice. However, it means the exception gets copied as part of the throw statement, so it must have an accessible copy constructor. And because you have a non-copyable member (std::stringstream), you must provide your own copy ctor.
