NAME
Log::Report::Exception - a collected report
INHERITANCE
SYNOPSIS
# created within a try block
try { error "help!" };
my $exception = $@->wasFatal;
$exception->throw if $exception;
$@->reportFatal; # combination of above two lines
my $message = $exception->message; # the Log::Report::Message
if($message->inClass('die')) ...
if($exception->inClass('die')) ... # same
if($@->wasFatal(class => 'die')) ... # same
DESCRIPTION
In Log::Report, exceptions are not as extended as available in languages as Java: you do not create classes for them. The only thing an exception object does, is capture some information about an (untranslated) report.
METHODS
Constructors
Log::Report::Exception->new(OPTIONS)
Option --Default
message <required>
reason <required>
report_opts {}
. message => Log::Report::Message
. reason => REASON
. report_opts => HASH
Accessors
$obj->message
$obj->reason
$obj->report_opts
Processing
$obj->inClass(CLASS|REGEX)
Check whether any of the classes listed in the message match CLASS (string) or the REGEX. This uses Log::Report::Message::inClass().
$obj->throw(OPTIONS)
Insert the message contained in the exception into the currently defined dispatchers. The throw
name is commonly known exception related terminology for report
.
The OPTIONS overrule the captured options to Log::Report::report(). This can be used to overrule a destination. Also, the reason can be changed.
example: overrule defaults to report
try { print {to => 'stderr'}, ERROR => 'oops!' };
$@->reportFatal(to => 'syslog');
