// compile with: /EHsc 
#include <memory> 
#include <iostream>

    { 
    std::weak_ptr<int> wp; 
 
     { 
    std::shared_ptr<int> sp(new int); 
    wp = sp; 
     } 
 
    try 
        { 
        std::shared_ptr<int> sp1(wp); // weak_ptr has expired 
        } 
    catch (const std::bad_weak_ptr&) 
        { 
        std::cout << "bad weak pointer" << std::endl; 
        } 
    catch (...) 
        { 
        std::cout << "unknown exception" << std::endl; 
        }
