Replace .unwrap() and panic!() calls with proper error handling to prevent crashes and improve robustness. When encountering potential failures, choose one of three approaches:
Result types.expect() with clear, actionable messages if crashing is truly intendedExamples:
Instead of:
let result = receiver.recv().unwrap().unwrap();
Use propagation:
fn get_result(&self) -> Result<SomeType, Error> {
let result = receiver.recv().map_err(|e| Error::IpcFailure)?
.map_err(|e| Error::OperationFailed)?;
Ok(result)
}
Instead of:
devtools_chan.send(msg).unwrap();
Use logging:
if let Err(e) = devtools_chan.send(msg) {
log::error!("DevTools send failed: {e}");
}
Instead of:
let components = string.split('x').collect::<Vec<_>>();
Ok(Some(Size2D::new(components[0], components[1])))
Use graceful handling:
let (width, height) = string.split_once('x')
.ok_or(ParseResolutionError::InvalidFormat)?;
This approach prevents unexpected crashes, especially in content processes, and provides better debugging information when failures occur.
