NAME

Error::Hierarchy::Container - container for hierarchical exceptions

SYNOPSIS

my $my_exception = create_some_exception();
my %exception_args = (foo => 'bar');
my $uuid1 = gen_some_uuid();
my $uuid2 = gen_some_uuid();

my $container = Error::Hierarchy::Container->new;
$container->items_set_push($my_exception);
$container->record('Some::Exception', %exception_args);
$container->delete_by_uuid($uuid1, $uuid2);

DESCRIPTION

This class implements a container for hierarchical exception objects. It is effectively a Data::Container but also has the following methods.

METHODS

record

Takes an exception class name (a string) and a hash of arguments. First the exception is constructed with the given arguments, then it is added - using items_set_push() - to the container. It's really a shortcut that saves you from having to record the exception and then adding it to the container yourself.

delete_by_uuid

Takes a list of uuid values and deletes all those exceptions from the container whose uuid appears in the given list.

Error::Hierarchy::Container inherits from Data::Container and Error::Hierarchy::Base.

The superclass Data::Container defines these methods and functions:

new(), clear_items(), count_items(), index_items(), item_grep(),
items(), items_clear(), items_count(), items_index(), items_pop(),
items_push(), items_set(), items_set_push(), items_shift(),
items_splice(), items_unshift(), pop_items(), prepare_comparable(),
push_items(), set_items(), shift_items(), splice_items(), stringify(),
unshift_items()

The superclass Class::Accessor::Complex defines these methods and functions:

mk_abstract_accessors(), mk_array_accessors(), mk_boolean_accessors(),
mk_class_array_accessors(), mk_class_hash_accessors(),
mk_class_scalar_accessors(), mk_concat_accessors(),
mk_forward_accessors(), mk_hash_accessors(), mk_integer_accessors(),
mk_new(), mk_object_accessors(), mk_scalar_accessors(),
mk_set_accessors(), mk_singleton()

The superclass Class::Accessor defines these methods and functions:

_carp(), _croak(), _mk_accessors(), accessor_name_for(),
best_practice_accessor_name_for(), best_practice_mutator_name_for(),
follow_best_practice(), get(), make_accessor(), make_ro_accessor(),
make_wo_accessor(), mk_accessors(), mk_ro_accessors(),
mk_wo_accessors(), mutator_name_for(), set()

The superclass Class::Accessor::Installer defines these methods and functions:

install_accessor()

The superclass Error::Hierarchy::Base defines these methods and functions:

dump_as_yaml(), dump_raw()

The superclass Error defines these methods and functions:

_throw_Error_Simple(), associate(), catch(), file(), flush(), import(),
line(), object(), prior(), stacktrace(), text(), throw(), value(),
with()

The superclass Data::Inherited defines these methods and functions:

every_hash(), every_list(), flush_every_cache_by_key()
