Nix/src/libutil/error.hh
Rebecca Turner 4feb7d9f71
Combine AbstractPos, PosAdapter, and Pos
Also move `SourcePath` into `libutil`.

These changes allow `error.hh` and `error.cc` to access source path and
position information, which we can use to produce better error messages
(for example, we could consider omitting filenames when two or more
consecutive stack frames originate from the same file).

/**
* @file
*
* @brief This file defines two main structs/classes used in nix error handling.
*
* ErrorInfo provides a standard payload of error information, with conversion to string
* happening in the logger rather than at the call site.
*
* BaseError is the ancestor of nix specific exceptions (and Interrupted), and contains
* an ErrorInfo.
*
* ErrorInfo structs are sent to the logger as part of an exception, or directly with the
* logError or logWarning macros.
* See libutil/tests/logging.cc for usage examples.
