//! Traits for working with Errors.

#![stable(feature = "rust1", since = "1.0.0")]

// A note about crates and the facade:
//
// Originally, the `Error` trait was defined in libcore, and the impls
// were scattered about. However, coherence objected to this
// arrangement, because to create the blanket impls for `Box` required
// knowing that `&str: !Error`, and we have no means to deal with that
// sort of conflict just now. Therefore, for the time being, we have
// moved the `Error` trait into libstd. As we evolve a sol'n to the
// coherence challenge (e.g., specialization, neg impls, etc) we can
// reconsider what crate these items belong in.

/// `Error` is a trait representing the basic expectations for error values,
/// i.e., values of type `E` in [`Result<T, E>`]. Errors must describe
/// themselves through the [`Display`] and [`Debug`] traits, and may provide
/// cause chain information:
///
/// The [`source`] method is generally used when errors cross "abstraction
/// boundaries". If one module must report an error that is caused by an error
/// from a lower-level module, it can allow access to that error via the
/// [`source`] method. This makes it possible for the high-level module to
/// provide its own errors while also revealing some of the implementation for
/// debugging via [`source`] chains.
