Owl provides a way to manage errors occuring in component lifecycle
methods. However, before this commit, these errors were not always
logged or visible, which is very annoying in the common developer
workflow (doing something, checking it works, seeing no error but a
broken interface).
In this commit, we make sure errors are logged/throws in all cases:
- if an error occurs in a mounting operation => the promise is rejected
(which will log the error)
- if an error occurs after the mounting operation and is not handled by
any error handlers => the error will be logged (with console.error).
Also, in that case, this commit adds a warning to explain that owl
destroys the root component, which will help developers understanding
what happened.
Before this commit, class inheritance when using the onError hook was unclear nay wrong.
After this commit, error handlers are called from the bottom up in the inheritance hierarchy.
If a handler doesn't rethrow the error, the handling stops there and no other handler is called.
If a handler does rethrow, the handlers declared in a parent class are executed.
In the following situation: A parent of B, B parent of C, with an error
when C is mounted, caught by B and retriggering a rendering in B, then
the onMounted hook of A wasn't properly called. This commit fixes this
problem.
This commit makes the reactivity system more fine grained and makes it
more eager to stop observing keys or objects when they are modified,
this results in fewer "false positive" notifications.
Before this commit, errors triggered at the level of the fiber (as opposed to at the level
of a component's rendering), were handled as the very top level of the rendering, that is,
in the scheduler.
This was wrong because components below in the rendering tree would not have a chance to handle their
children's or their own errors.
After this commit, error triggered in willPatch, onMounted and onPatched are correctly handled
at the closest component to where they were thrown.
Have a Child Compnent which has one component that succeeds and another
one that fails at its instanciation.
The Child component handles the Errors by rendering itself.
Before this commit, the error handling algorithm made impossible for the scheduler to finish.
This was because the current fiber was still counted as ongoing, when it was actually completed.
After this commit, this use case is handled correctly.
