[fdo-internals] RE: FDO RFC 37 - Detailed Exception is ready for review.

[Traian Stanev]

My main concern is that having native error codes encourages the client code to be non-generic, in that it would have to know which provider it is working with, in order to handle the native error code correctly. Of course, that is a concern about the client code, not FDO itself, so the client code is free to handle this any way it wants... including in bad ways.

catch (FdoException* e)
{
    FdoInt64 errorCode = e->GetNativeErrorCode();
    e->Release();
    // Take some measures according to native error code
    ......
}
I think no matter how many exception subclasses are invented, the only useful thing for handling the error is the error code.

And I said before, another very useful thing to have is the ability to distinguish between errors and warnings.
