C++ | Exception Handling | Question 9

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class Test {
  static int count;
  int id;
public:
  Test() {
    count++;
    id = count;
    cout << "Constructing object number " << id << endl;
    if(id == 4)
       throw 4;
  }
  ~Test() { cout << "Destructing object number " << id << endl; }
};

int Test::count = 0;

int main() {
  try {
    Test array[5];
  } catch(int i) {
    cout << "Caught " << i << endl;
  }
}
