data NoiseException

Represents the various exceptions which can be thrown.

• InvalidHandshakeOptions occurs when a key that is needed is missing, or when a key is provided that shouldn't be. For example, it would be an error for the initiator to provide a remote static key if using the Noise_NX pattern, because that key is transmitted during the handshake.
• DecryptionError occurs when a non-handshake message fails to be decrypted.
• HandshakeError occurs when a handshake message fails to be processed. This can be due to an invalid transmitted ephemeral key, a transmitted static key which fails to be decrypted, or a handshake message payload which fails to be decrypted.
• MessageLimitReached occurs if the user attempts to send or receive more than 2^64 messages. This is needed because nonces are 8-bytes (64 bits), and doing so would cause catastrophic key re-use.
