Loads the execution context env saved by a previous call to setjmp. This function does not return. Control is transferred to the call site of the macro setjmp that set up env. That setjmp then returns the value, passed as the status.
If the function that called setjmp has exited, the behavior is undefined (in other words, only long jumps up the call stack are allowed).
[edit]On top of C longjmp, C++ std::longjmp
has more restricted behavior.
If replacing std::longjmp
with throw and setjmp with catch would invoke a non-trivial destructor for any automatic object, the behavior of such std::longjmp
is undefined.
The behavior is undefined if std::longjmp
is called in a coroutine in a place where the co_await operator may be used.
(none)
[edit] Notesstd::longjmp
is the mechanism used in C to handle unexpected error conditions where the function cannot return meaningfully. C++ generally uses exception handling for this purpose.

Output:
