| 49 | // |
| 50 | // var err error |
| 51 | // for _, item := range items { |
| 52 | // err = multierr.Append(err, process(item)) |

| 62 | // err = multierr.Append(err, perr) |
| 63 | // } |
| 64 | // } |

| 70 | // if multierr.AppendInto(&err, process(item)) { |

| 75 | // This will append the error into the err variable, and return true if that |
| 76 | // individual error was non-nil. |

| 78 | // See [AppendInto] for more information. |
| 79 | // |
| 80 | // # Deferred Functions |
| 81 | // |
| 82 | // Go makes it possible to modify the return value of a function in a defer |
| 83 | // block if the function was using named returns. This makes it possible to |
| 84 | // record resource cleanup failures from deferred blocks. |
| 85 | // |
| 86 | // func sendRequest(req Request) (err error) { |
| 87 | // conn, err := openConnection() |
| 88 | // if err != nil { |
| 89 | // return err |
| 90 | // } |
| 91 | // defer func() { |
| 92 | // err = multierr.Append(err, conn.Close()) |
| 93 | // }() |
| 94 | // // ... |
| 95 | // } |
| 96 | // |
| 97 | // multierr provides the Invoker type and AppendInvoke function to make cases |
| 98 | // like the above simpler and obviate the need for a closure. The following is |
| 99 | // roughly equivalent to the example above. |
| 100 | // |
| 101 | // func sendRequest(req Request) (err error) { |
| 102 | // conn, err := openConnection() |
| 103 | // if err != nil { |
| 104 | // return err |
| 105 | // } |
| 106 | // defer multierr.AppendInvoke(&err, multierr.Close(conn)) |
| 107 | // // ... |
| 108 | // } |
| 109 | // |
| 110 | // See [AppendInvoke] and [Invoker] for more information. |
| 111 | // |
| 112 | // NOTE: If you're modifying an error from inside a defer, you MUST use a named |
| 113 | // return value for that function. |
| 114 | // |
