Detailed Description

Error handling.

Every Gyoto method should check for possible error conditions and throw adequate Gyoto::Error exceptions. For instance:

    if (error_condition) throw Gyoto::Error("Useful error message");

The main code can then catch these exceptions and act appropriately, for instance:

    try { gyoto_code ; }
    catch (Gyoto::Error err)
    {
       err.Report();
       abort();
    }
