/**
 * @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.
