in reply to Re^6: Learning how to use the Error module by example
in thread Learning how to use the Error module by example

My point is that if you're wrapping in a try-block, you should be throwing exceptions, even something like Error::OK or the like. In fact, I wouldn't even call them exceptions, really. They're more like signals within the same process. Just because we use them 99.999% of the time to indicate an abnormal situation doesn't mean that this is what they should be limited to ...
