lean_rs/error/mod.rs
1//! Typed error boundary for the safe `lean-rs` surface.
2//!
3//! Every fallible public function returns [`LeanResult<T>`]. [`LeanError`]
4//! is the single error type that crosses the boundary; it has three
5//! variants:
6//!
7//! - [`LeanError::LeanException`] when Lean threw through its `IO` error
8//! channel. The payload reports the `IO.Error` constructor as
9//! [`LeanExceptionKind`] and a bounded `message()` that callers may
10//! surface to end users.
11//! - [`LeanError::Host`] when our stack failed (init, ABI conversion,
12//! contained callback panic, future link/load, internal invariant). The
13//! payload reports the [`HostStage`] and a bounded developer-facing
14//! `message()`.
15//! - [`LeanError::Cancelled`] when a `lean-rs-host` cooperative
16//! cancellation token was observed before an FFI dispatch or between
17//! bulk dispatches.
18//!
19//! Bounded messages are a *structural* invariant: [`LeanException`] and
20//! [`HostFailure`] have private fields, and the only constructors are
21//! `pub(crate)`; both run a shared helper that truncates the message at
22//! [`LEAN_ERROR_MESSAGE_LIMIT`] on a UTF-8 char boundary. [`LeanCancelled`]
23//! also has private fields and carries a fixed host-authored message.
24//! External callers receive `LeanError` values but cannot mint one with
25//! an unbounded message.
26//!
27//! The rule callers learn: **runtime / host failures are [`LeanError`];
28//! application semantics are values.** A Lean function returning
29//! `IO (Except E T)` decodes as `LeanResult<Result<T, E>>` — outer `IO`
30//! failure becomes a [`LeanError::LeanException`], inner `Except`
31//! becomes a Rust [`Result`].
32//!
33//! ## Diagnostic codes
34//!
35//! Every error-bearing type on the public surface projects to a stable
36//! [`LeanDiagnosticCode`] via `.code()`. The code names the failure
37//! family a downstream caller must react to — `Linking`, `Elaboration`,
38//! `Unsupported`, and so on — independent of the internal [`HostStage`]
39//! tag. The `as_str()` form of each code is the identifier used by the
40//! tracing spans and the published `docs/diagnostics.md` catalogue;
41//! variant names and string ids are stable across patch releases.
