read statusCode from err.statusCode?

[yorkie]

Hi This is a question like the title, the loopback framework is using err.statusCode to expose the http status code. And I did know the preprocessor would address the issue.

However, I just think why not supporting statusCode from the error object, the node core is using this name, so should we use this as well?

Thanks !!!

Can you point me to where the "node core" is using this field?

wow~ thanks for such quick reply, for your question, i mean here: https://iojs.org/api/http.html#http_response_statuscode

OK I thought you meant node core was using err.statusCode somewhere

In fact I meant the loopback is using the statusCode, that is my pain for this issue, check this: https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/blob/master/common/models/user.js#L192, @dougwilson how do you think supporting statusCode as well? if lgtm, i'm glad to submit a pr for you :)

I know it's used there. You just said node core as well, so I was confused. You can make a PR, yes, but it'll sit for a month or so, because some of these modules are still tied to Express 3 release schedules until it goes away.

Basically feel free because I was going to do it anyway, but don't expect a release soon :)
