Usage

ECError

The ECError class holds a origin, type, and native JavaScript Error instance. Pass those along in the constructor. The origin and type are to be of type ECErrorOriginType and ECErrorType. Passing a native JavaScript Error instance allows ECError to follow the stack of the error which is obviously very helpful when debugging.

ECErrorStack

The ECErrorStack class holds a collection of ECError instances. There are static factory helper methods to create instances easier like with a predefined ECError instance. You get get the top most error, add a general error to hide errors during production and a lot more.
