   Discontinued Error handling project group

   

   If anyone's interested in helping to shape the future of Rust's built-in error-handling story, there's an error handling project group that's been doing great work recently, e.g. the major effort to move the Error trait into libcore ( https://github.com/rust-lang/project-error-handling/issues/3 ) and stabilizing std::backtrace. You can follow along or get involved via the #project-error-handling channel on the Rust zulip: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/

   The Rust Programming Language

   

   This glaring omission from this is the "enum idiom":

   they talk about it here:

   https://nrc.github.io/error-docs/error-design/error-type-des...

   but including more than a snippet would to a long way to that "aha" moment I think. This was frustrating for me browsing this site. The author wrote 10 pages of docs, but nearly all the examples are like 5 line snippets of code. I think examples are equally important as the discussion itself. Rust itself suffers from the same problem:
