Fixes #10350
ping @bushrat011899, @Roryl-c (I'm not actually using custom assets, so this needs to be reviewed by someone who does)
Objective
Want to allow people to use
anyhow
as the return error value ofAssetLoader
.Solution
ErasedAssetLoader::load
already returns type-erased errors. Why not return the same errors inAssetLoader::load
?Also, I aliased
bevy::asset::Error
toBox<dyn Error + Send + Sync + 'static>
to make changes more backward compatible in the future + easier to type. This was suggested earlier in #5359.Changelog
AssetLoader::load
now returns type-erased Errors.Migration Guide
Remove an associated type
Error
fromAssetLoader
andAssetSaver
. Return error value is nowBox<dyn Error>
to allow for unsized user types.
