## Error and termination handling

# See `/docs/error-handling.md` on limitations and annoyances.


## What to consider as an error.

# Accessing unset variables is an error.
set -o nounset

# No `pipefail` (default).
#  - Enabling this might, in particular, cause unexpected issues in `if`
#    statements.
#  - Enable in a subshell whereever necessary.


## How to act on error.

function basic::print_stacktrace()
{
  local -ri offset="$1"

  local -i i
  local -a args=()
  for (( i = offset + 1; i < ${#BASH_SOURCE[@]} - 1; i++ ))
  do
    # See also the `caller` bash builtin.
    args+=( "${BASH_SOURCE[i]} ${BASH_LINENO[i-1]} ${FUNCNAME[i]}" )
  done
  args+=( "${BASH_SOURCE[i]} ${BASH_LINENO[i-1]} <main>" )

  basic::stacktrace_prettyprint "$BASH_SUBSHELL" "${args[@]}"

  return 0
}

# Default function to pretty-print stack trace.
#  - To be redefined if desired.
function basic::stacktrace_prettyprint()
{
  local -ri subshell_id="$1"
  shift

  local -i i=$#
  local msg
  for msg
  do
    printf 'FAILED (%d, %d): %s\n' $subshell_id $((--i)) "$msg" >&2
  done

  return 0
}

# On ERR, print stack trace and exit non-zero.
trap 'basic::print_stacktrace 0; exit 1' ERR

# Inherit traps on ERR.
set -o errtrace

# Exit on ERR.
#  - This is mostly made redundant by the ERR trap (which causes an exit).
#  - However, in some cases, the ERR trap does not apply, while `errexit` does:
#    - `var[0]=(foo bar)`, when not in a subshell.
#      - Same for an associative array.
#  - It is unclear why `errexit` and the ERR trap apply on different
#    conditions.
#  - `inherit_errexit` seems indeed irrelevant in our case, but we enable it
#    for consistency.
#  - Note: `inherit_errexit` is similar to `errtrace`.
#  - See also: `/docs/error-handling.md#Array_variables`
set -o errexit
shopt -s inherit_errexit


## How to act on exit.

# Default on_exit() function.
#  - To be redefined if desired.
function basic::on_exit()
{
  return 0
}

# Print an error message upon `shift`-ing "too far" (causes ERR regardless).
