\class BError
\ingroup netservices
\brief Abstract base class for advanced error objects.
This class defines the minimum interface for advanced error objects in
modern parts of the Haiku API.
The minimum definition of an error is that it contains an \em origin and
a \em message. The origin should contain a string that helps a developer
identify the origin of the error. Common practise is to pass the
\c __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ from the place where the error is constructed, but
subclasses can have their own definitions for the origin.
The message is a freeform message that describes the exact error condition.
While it is not meant as a user-facing message, when creating custom error
objects, take into account that a user may be confronted with a message in
situations where an application presents it to a user as a final resort.
\note The advanced error objects are not used in the existing legacy Haiku
Kits. They are being tested for use in the modern parts of the API and are
therefore included in the network services kit.

create more specialized error types.

error understandable by a user, as they may sometimes see it.
