Functions should use specific, appropriate error handling mechanisms rather than generic or brittle approaches. This includes returning proper error codes when operations fail, using specific error types instead of generic notImplemented errors, and avoiding fragile error detection methods like string matching.

Key practices:

Example of improvement:

// Instead of always returning success:
setBroadcast(_bool: 0 | 1): number {
  this.#listener?.setBroadcast(_bool === 1);
  return 0; // Always success - problematic
}

// Return appropriate error codes:
setBroadcast(_bool: 0 | 1): number {
  try {
    this.#listener?.setBroadcast(_bool === 1);
    return 0;
  } catch {
    return -1; // Proper error indication
  }
}

// Instead of generic errors:
export function setFipsCrypto(_fips: boolean) {
  notImplemented("crypto.setFipsCrypto"); // Generic
}

// Use specific error types:
export function setFipsCrypto(_fips: boolean) {
  throw new Error("FIPS mode is not available"); // Specific
}
