Detailed Description

Base Exception class where all exceptions are derived from.

This mimicks the Standard Library's exception class. The reason for it and not the standard library is because the Standard Library cannot be used in any of pircbot's public interfaces.

This constraint gives the users of pircbot the choice of their own Standard Library and not become tied to a particular implementation of the Standard Library.

All Standard Library exceptions that occur inside of pircbot are caught and rewrapped inside of this Exception. Therefore, no Standard Library exceptions will be thrown outside of pircbot.
