Hi all, I was trying to log an exception and noticed that this does not work: Logger.error(exception). Logger could handle this case itself, but I think it would be better to handle it more generically.
So, I propose when a module uses the defexception macro, that Elixir automatically define the String.Chars implementation for that module. Inside the defexception macro, the implementation of String.Chars would be the following: defimpl String.Chars, for: env.module do def to_string(error), do: Exception.format(:error, error) end -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
