Error Handling

A very important topic that arises in every program is correct and robust error handling. Especially nowadays where most computers are connected together in networks, sloppy error handling can lead to a serious security concern if the code is used in a networking aware application. And as networking and interoperability gets more and more important these days, you can never know if parts of your code can and will be used for an internet application some day.

Of course there is much more to writing programs that are secure for networking, but robust error handling and input validation are two of the most important techniques in this field. In this section we only concentrate on the first one.
