This also introduces LLContinueError for exceptions which should interrupt
some part of viewer processing (e.g. the current coroutine) but should attempt
to let the viewer session proceed.
Derive all existing viewer exception classes from LLException rather than from
std::runtime_error or std::logic_error.
Use BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION() rather than plain 'throw' to enrich the thrown
exception with source file, line number and containing function.
In particular:
NotImplemented in llhttpnode.cpp
RelocateError in llupdateinstaller.cpp
LLProtectedDataException, LLCertException and subclasses in llsecapi.h
Had to add no-throw destructor overrides to LLCertException and subclasses
because otherwise clang complains that the implicitly-generated destructor's
exception specification is more lax than the base class's.
Using a Params block gives compile-time checking against attribute typos. One
might inadvertently set myLLSD["autofill"] = false and only discover it when
things behave strangely at runtime; but trying to set myParams.autofill will
produce a compile error.
However, it's excellent that the same LLProcess::create() method can accept
either LLProcess::Params or a properly-constructed LLSD block.
LLProcessLauncher had the somewhat fuzzy mandate of (1) accumulating
parameters with which to launch a child process and (2) sometimes tracking the
lifespan of the ensuing child process. But a valid LLProcessLauncher object
might or might not have ever been associated with an actual child process.
LLProcess specifically tracks a child process. In effect, it's a fairly thin
wrapper around a process HANDLE (on Windows) or pid_t (elsewhere), with
lifespan management thrown in. A static LLProcess::create() method launches a
new child; create() accepts an LLSD bundle with child parameters. So building
up a parameter bundle is deferred to LLSD rather than conflated with the
process management object.
Reconcile all known LLProcessLauncher consumers in the viewer code base,
notably the class unit tests.
On a Posix platform (vfork()/execv() implementation), if for any reason the
execv() failed (e.g. executable not on PATH), the viewer would never know, nor
the user: the vfork() child produced no output, and terminated with rc 0! Add
logging, make child terminate with nonzero rc.
Remove pointless addArgument(const char*) overload: this does nothing for you
that the compiler won't do implicitly.
In llupdateinstaller.cpp, remove pointless c_str() call in addArgument() arg:
we were starting with a std::string, then extracting its c_str(), only to
construct a whole new std::string from it!
