# Finding an Error cause

To distinguish the errors occuring in various places, we can define named string errors with the
"new type" pattern.
~~~rust,ignore
derive_str_cherr!(Func2Error);
derive_str_cherr!(Func1Error);
~~~
Instead of `ChainError<String>` we now have `struct Func1Error(String)` and `ChainError<Func1Error>`.
In the `main` function you can see, how we can match the different errors.
Also see:
~~~rust,ignore
if let Some(f2err) = f1err.find_chain_cause::<Func2Error>() {
~~~
as a shortcut to
~~~rust,ignore
if let Some(f2err) = f1err.find_cause::<ChainError<Func2Error>>() {
~~~
hiding the `ChainError<T>` implementation detail.
