/*
The overly-complex error system works as follows:
A source file (typically a .h) can declare errors as follows:
ERROR_GROUP(ModuleName);
ERROR_TYPE(ModuleName, FrobnificationFailed);
ERROR_SUBGROUP(ModuleName, ComponentName);
ERROR_TYPE(ModuleName_ComponentName, FileNotFound);
etc, to build up a hierarchy of error types.
Then you have to run the /build/errorlist/errorlist.pl script, to regenerate
the Errors.cpp file.
Then you can use the declared errors as an error code:
PSRETURN foo() { return PSRETURN_ModuleName_FrobnificationFailed; }
if (ret != PSRETURN_OK)
... // something failed
if (ret)
... // something failed
if (ret == PSRETURN_ModuleName_FrobnificationFailed)
... // particular error
if (ERROR_IS(ret, PSRETURN_ModuleName))
... // matches any type PSRETURN_ModuleName_* (and PSRETURN_ModuleName_*_* etc)
And you can use it as an exception:
void foo() { throw PSERROR_ModuleName_FrobnificationFailed(); }
void bar() { throw PSERROR_ModuleName_FrobnificationFailed("More informative message"); }
try {
foo();
} catch (PSERROR_ModuleName_FrobnificationFailed& e) {
// catches that particular error type
} catch (PSERROR_ModuleName& e) {
// catches anything in the hierarchy
} catch (PSERROR& e) {
std::cout << e.what();
}
plus a few extra things for converting between error codes and exceptions.
