Where to go instead 2
-
thiserror A few hours
For libraries: derives the error type failure used to
Replace `#[derive(Fail)]` with `#[derive(thiserror::Error)]` and implement `std::error::Error`.
Checked by hand.
-
anyhow Drop-in replacement
For applications: one boxed error type, like failure::Error
`failure::Error` becomes `anyhow::Error`, and `bail!`/`ensure!` keep working.
Checked by hand.
