* Add definition names to default trait key errors Closes #1222 Before this commit, referencing a trait that didn't exist would raise a generic `KeyError: Trait not registered: "trait_name"`. This can sometime make it difficult to know where exactly the error is coming from. The fact that implicitly declared associations and sequences will fall back to implicit traits if they can't be found compounds this problem. If various associations, sequences, or traits share the same name, the hunt for the error can take some time. With this commit we include the factory or trait name (i.e. the definition name) in the error message to help identify where the problematic trait originated. Because trait lookup relies on a more generic class that raises a `KeyError` for missing keys, we rescue that error, then construct a new error with our custom message using the original error's message and backtrace. |
