    /**
     * @class Ext.Error
     * @private
     * @extends Error

    A wrapper class for the native JavaScript Error object that adds a few useful capabilities for handling
    errors in an Ext application. When you use Ext.Error to {@link #raise} an error from within any class that
    uses the Ext 4 class system, the Error class can automatically add the source class and method from which
    the error was raised. It also includes logic to automatically log the eroor to the console, if available,
    with additional metadata about the error. In all cases, the error will always be thrown at the end so that
    execution will halt.

    Ext.Error also offers a global error {@link #handle handling} method that can be overridden in order to
    handle application-wide errors in a single spot. You can optionally {@link #ignore} errors altogether,
    although in a real application it's usually a better idea to override the handling function and perform
    logging or some other method of reporting the errors in a way that is meaningful to the application.

    At its simplest you can simply raise an error as a simple string from within any code:

    #Example usage:#

        Ext.Error.raise('Something bad happened!');

    If raised from plain JavaScript code, the error will be logged to the console (if available) and the message
    displayed. In most cases however you'll be raising errors from within a class, and it may often be useful to add
    additional metadata about the error being raised.  The {@link #raise} method can also take a config object.
    In this form the `msg` attribute becomes the error description, and any other data added to the config gets
    added to the error object and, if the console is available, logged to the console for inspection.

    #Example usage:#

        Ext.define('Ext.Foo', {
            doSomething: function(option){
                if (someCondition === false) {
                    Ext.Error.raise({
                        msg: 'You cannot do that!',
                        option: option,   // whatever was passed into the method
                        'error code': 100 // other arbitrary info
                    });
                }
            }
        });

    If a console is available (that supports the `console.dir` function) you'll see console output like:

        An error was raised with the following data:
        option:         Object { foo: "bar"}
            foo:        "bar"
        error code:     100
        msg:            "You cannot do that!"
        sourceClass:   "Ext.Foo"
        sourceMethod:  "doSomething"

        uncaught exception: You cannot do that!

    As you can see, the error will report exactly where it was raised and will include as much information as the
    raising code can usefully provide.

    If you want to handle all application errors globally you can simply override the static {@link #handle} method
    and provide whatever handling logic you need. If the method returns true then the error is considered handled
    and will not be thrown to the browser. If anything but true is returned then the error will be thrown normally.

    #Example usage:#

        Ext.Error.handle = function(err) {
            if (err.someProperty == 'NotReallyAnError') {
                // maybe log something to the application here if applicable
                return true;
            }
            // any non-true return value (including none) will cause the error to be thrown
        }

            /**
             * @property ignore
    Static flag that can be used to globally disable error reporting to the browser if set to true
    (defaults to false). Note that if you ignore Ext errors it's likely that some other code may fail
    and throw a native JavaScript error thereafter, so use with caution. In most cases it will probably
    be preferable to supply a custom error {@link #handle handling} function instead.

    #Example usage:#

        Ext.Error.ignore = true;

            /**
             * @property notify
    Static flag that can be used to globally control error notification to the user. Unlike
    Ex.Error.ignore, this does not effect exceptions. They are still thrown. This value can be
    set to false to disable the alert notification (default is true for IE6 and IE7).

    Only the first error will generate an alert. Internally this flag is set to false when the
    first error occurs prior to displaying the alert.

    This flag is not used in a release build.

    #Example usage:#

        Ext.Error.notify = false;

    Raise an error that can include additional data and supports automatic console logging if available.
    You can pass a string error message or an object with the `msg` attribute which will be used as the

    along with the error.

    Note that after displaying the error message a JavaScript error will ultimately be thrown so that
    execution will halt.
