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');
