/**
 * 

* An exception that provides an easy and safe way to add contextual information. *

* An exception trace itself is often insufficient to provide rapid diagnosis of the issue. * Frequently what is needed is a select few pieces of local contextual data. * Providing this data is tricky however, due to concerns over formatting and nulls. *

* The contexted exception approach allows the exception to be created together with a * list of context label-value pairs. This additional information is automatically included in * the message and printed stack trace. *

* An unchecked version of this exception is provided by ContextedRuntimeException. *

*

* To use this class write code as follows: *

*
 *   try {
 *     ...
 *   } catch (Exception e) {
 *     throw new ContextedException("Error posting account transaction", e)
 *          .addContextValue("Account Number", accountNumber)
 *          .addContextValue("Amount Posted", amountPosted)
 *          .addContextValue("Previous Balance", previousBalance)
 *   }
 * }
 * 
*

* or improve diagnose data at a higher level: *

*
 *   try {
 *     ...
 *   } catch (ContextedException e) {
 *     throw e.setContextValue("Transaction Id", transactionId);
 *   } catch (Exception e) {
 *     if (e instanceof ExceptionContext) {
 *       e.setContextValue("Transaction Id", transactionId);
 *     }
 *     throw e;
 *   }
 * }
 * 
*

* The output in a printStacktrace() (which often is written to a log) would look something like the following: *

*
 * org.apache.commons.lang3.exception.ContextedException: java.lang.Exception: Error posting account transaction
 *  Exception Context:
 *  [1:Account Number=null]
 *  [2:Amount Posted=100.00]
 *  [3:Previous Balance=-2.17]
 *  [4:Transaction Id=94ef1d15-d443-46c4-822b-637f26244899]
