// `missingCaseError` is useful for compile-time checking that all `case`s in // a `switch` statement have been handled, e.g. // // type AttachmentType = 'media' | 'documents'; // // const type: AttachmentType = selectedTab; // switch (type) { // case 'media': // return ; // case 'documents': // return ; // default: // return missingCaseError(type); // } // // If we extended `AttachmentType` to `'media' | 'documents' | 'links'` the code // above would trigger a compiler error stating that `'links'` has not been // handled by our `switch` / `case` statement which is useful for code // maintenance and system evolution. export const missingCaseError = (x: never): TypeError => new TypeError(`Unhandled case: ${x}`);
