ref(ffi,cabi): Replace outdated failure with anyhow crate#1669
Merged
Conversation
Failure crate is outdated and not supported anymore. It's time to switch to modern alternative. Instead of `failure::Error` switching to `anyhow::Error` which is a wrapper around a dynamic error type. `Error` works a lot like `Box<dyn std::error::Error>`, but with these differences: * Requires that the error is Send, Sync, and 'static. * Guarantees that a backtrace is available, even if the underlying error type does not provide one. * Is represented as a narrow pointer — exactly one word in size instead of two.
