DIAGNOSTICS

Error: CW$object is not a collection.

The first argument is an object, but not of a class which extends User::Identity::Collection.

Error: Cannot create a CW$type to add this to my collection.

Some options are specified to create a CW$type object, which is native to this collection. However, for some reason this failed.

Error: Cannot load collection module for CW$type ($class).

Either the specified CW$type does not exist, or that module named CW$class returns compilation errors. If the type as specified in the warning is not the name of a package, you specified a nickname which was not defined. Maybe you forgot the 'require' the package which defines the nickname.

Error: Cannot rename CW$name into CW$newname: already exists

Error: Cannot rename CW$name into CW$newname: doesn't exist

Error: Creation of a collection via CW$class failed.

The CW$class did compile, but it was not possible to create an object of that class using the options you specified.

Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add.

If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a list of options which can be used to create a collection object. In the latter case, the type of collection must be specified.

Warning: No collection CW$name

The collection with CW$name does not exist and can not be created.

Error: Wrong type of role for CW$collection: requires a CW$expect but got a CW$type

Each CW$collection groups sets of roles of one specific type ($expect). You cannot add objects of a different CW$type.
