In std/error.e why is the language usage inconsistent?
An error condition is described by:
- crash_message
- crash_file
- crash_routine
- crash
- ex.err
Language switches from "error" to "crash" back to ".err".
While a "warning" condition is uniformly described:
- warning_message
- warning_file
- warning
The process for an "error" would be better described by: error_message, error_file, error_routine, error, ex.err
We could use exception to mean either error or warning in the same way routine is used to describe procedure or function.
The result would be:
- make it simple, make the same
- everything fits into a uniform pattern
- easier to document
- easier to remember and use
