7/// The error type for [`Builtin::call`].
8///
9/// Usually, you don't need to construct this type manually. Instead, use the
10/// [`?` operator] for any [`Result`] in the body of the [`Builtin::call`]
11/// method, and errors will be converted to this type.
12///
13/// However, if you want to return a specific exit code, use the
14/// [`ExitCode`] variant.
15///
16/// [`?` operator]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-02-recoverable-errors-with-result.html#a-shortcut-for-propagating-errors-the--operator
