Type of unexpected handler function

This is a typedef of a void function with no parameters, used as the argument and return type in function set_unexpected.

An unexpected handler function is a function called when a function throws an exception that is not in its exception-specification (i.e., in its throw specifier).

For more info, see the reference for set_unexpected, which is the function used to set a function of this type as the active unexpected handler.
