Would you like to add more error handling for return values from functions like the following?

f-prime commented 5 years ago

Absolutely. Is that something you want to work on, or is this a suggestion?

elfring commented 5 years ago

I suggest to avoid ignorance of return values a bit more. Would you like to detect every error situation as early as possible?

f-prime commented 5 years ago

@elfring Ideally yes.

elfring commented 5 years ago

How do you think about to improve static source code analysis also for this software?

Are you interested to apply aspect-oriented software development?
Would you like to encapsulate error detection and corresponding exception handling as a reusable aspect in this software?

f-prime commented 5 years ago

I don't know much about this but I would be open to hear more about it if you'd be willing to share why you think it is useful.

I suggest to read a bit more advice from linked information sources.
