* exception tracking This PR adds minimal exception tracking to chronos, moving the goalpost one step further. In particular, it becomes invalid to raise exceptions from `callSoon` callbacks: this is critical for writing correct error handling because there's no reasonable way that a user of chronos can possibly _reason_ about exceptions coming out of there: the event loop will be in an indeterminite state when the loop is executing an _random_ callback. As expected, there are several issues in the error handling of chronos: in particular, it will end up in an inconsistent internal state whenever the selector loop operations fail, because the internal state update functions are not written in an exception-safe way. This PR turns this into a Defect, which probably is not the optimal way of handling things - expect more work to be done here. Some API have no way of reporting back errors to callers - for example, when something fails in the accept loop, there's not much it can do, and no way to report it back to the user of the API - this has been fixed with the new accept flow - the old one should be deprecated. Finally, there is information loss in the API: in composite operations like `poll` and `waitFor` there's no way to differentiate internal errors from user-level errors originating from callbacks. * store `CatchableError` in future * annotate proc's with correct raises information * `selectors2` to avoid non-CatchableError IOSelectorsException * `$` should never raise * remove unnecessary gcsafe annotations * fix exceptions leaking out of timer waits * fix some imports * functions must signal raising the union of all exceptions across all platforms to enable cross-platform code * switch to unittest2 * add `selectors2` which supercedes the std library version and fixes several exception handling issues in there * fixes * docs, platform-independent eh specifiers for some functions * add feature flag for strict exception mode also bump version to 3.0.0 - _most_ existing code should be compatible with this version of exception handling but some things might need fixing - callbacks, existing raises specifications etc. * fix AsyncCheck for non-void T |
