NAME

Error::Hierarchy::Mixin - provides often-used exception-related methods

SYNOPSIS

package MyClass;
use Error::Hierarchy::Mixin;

Some::Exception->throw(foo => 'bar');

DESCRIPTION

This mixin provides several methods that you will often use when dealing with exceptions.

It also overrides CORE::GLOBAL::die() so die() will produce an Error::Hierarchy::Internal::CustomMessage. If you have to use the original die(), use CORE::die() instead.

METHODS

throw

Takes an exception class name (a string) and a hash of arguments. Loads the exception class, constructs an exception object, passes it the arguments and throws it by calling the exception object's throw() method. It populates the UNIVERSAL namespace, so all packages get this ability.

record

Like throw(), but records the exception using the exception object's record() method.

Error::Hierarchy::Mixin inherits from .
