Corrade::Utility::Fatal class

Warning output handler.

Contents

Equivalent to Error, but exits with defined exit code on destruction. So instead of this:

if(stuff.broken()) {
    Error{} << "Everything's broken, exiting.";
    std::exit(42);
}

You can write just this:

if(stuff.broken())
    Fatal{42} << "Everything's broken, exiting.";
