I'm trying to catch an AssertError in some of my code, but I don't know how to
import it with D 2.020.  I believe that it used to be in std.asserterror, but
that module doesn't appear to exist anymore and I can't figure out where it is.
 There's an AssertException in src/common/core/exception.d.  Did that replace
AssertError (the documentation talks about assert throwing AssertErrors though,
not AssertExceptions)?  Regardless, importing common.core.exception doesn't
work.

Do failed assertions throw AssertError or AssertException?  And what do I have
to do in order to be able to catch the appropriate one in my code?

Yes, at least it was supposed to have.  I think the module is just
imported as core.exception, though, not common.core.exception.  The
documentation most likely has not yet been updated since this change
just happened in the last update since Phobos now uses druntime for
the features it has in common with Tango.

Using AssertException and importing core.exception does indeed appear to have
done the trick.  Thanks.

Ah, I thought I saw this somewhere.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/changelog.html

The changelog for 2.020 lists most/all of the changes that you'll have
to make when you switch to it.  std.asserterror and AssertError are
among the changes ;)

Alias AssertException to AssertError for now.  It will be renamed to 
AssertError in 2.021.
