I'm not doing anything tricky or sophisticated at all. I simply meant that I create errors with fmt.Errorf, ala `var ErrCtxRain = fmt.Errorf("context cancelled due to rain")`; search them with strings.Contains(err.Error(),"i/o timeout")); and compare them with ==, ala `if err == io.EOF || err == ErrCtxRain { ...` This is minimum viable error(!) In other words, exactly what the error interface offers, and no more/no less. Since I integrate multiple 3rd party packages, I've found this to a viable/sane approach to handling their errors. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
