21=head1 NAME
22
23autodie::exception - Exceptions from autodying functions.
24
25=head1 SYNOPSIS
26
27 eval {
28 use autodie;
29
30 open(my $fh, '<', 'some_file.txt');
31
32 ...
33 };
34
35 if (my $E = $@) {
36 say "Ooops! ",$E->caller," had problems: $@";
37 }
38
39
40=head1 DESCRIPTION
41
42When an L<autodie> enabled function fails, it generates an
43C<autodie::exception> object. This can be interrogated to
44determine further information about the error that occurred.
45
46This document is broken into two sections; those methods that
47are most useful to the end-developer, and those methods for
48anyone wishing to subclass or get very familiar with
49C<autodie::exception>.
50
51=head2 Common Methods
52
53These methods are intended to be used in the everyday dealing
54of exceptions.
55
56The following assume that the error has been copied into
57a separate scalar:
58
59 if ($E = $@) {
60 ...
61 }
62
63This is not required, but is recommended in case any code
64is called which may reset or alter C<$@>.
65
66=cut
67
68=head3 args
69
70 my $array_ref = $E->args;
71
72Provides a reference to the arguments passed to the subroutine
73that died.
74
75=cut
76
77sub args { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{args}; }
78
79=head3 function
80
81 my $sub = $E->function;
82
83The subroutine (including package) that threw the exception.
84
85=cut
86
87sub function { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{function}; }
88
89=head3 file
90
91 my $file = $E->file;
92
93The file in which the error occurred (eg, C<myscript.pl> or
94C<MyTest.pm>).
95
96=cut
97
98sub file { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{file}; }
99
100=head3 package
101
102 my $package = $E->package;
103
104The package from which the exceptional subroutine was called.
105
106=cut
107
108sub package { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{package}; }
109
110=head3 caller
111
112 my $caller = $E->caller;
113
114The subroutine that I<called> the exceptional code.
115
116=cut
117
118sub caller { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{caller}; }
119
120=head3 line
121
122 my $line = $E->line;
123
124The line in C<< $E->file >> where the exceptional code was called.
125
126=cut
127
128sub line { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{line}; }
129
eb8d423f 130=head3 context
131
132 my $context = $E->context;
133
134The context in which the subroutine was called. This can be
135'list', 'scalar', or undefined (unknown). It will never be 'void', as
136C<autodie> always captures the return value in one way or another.
137
138=cut
139
140sub context { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{context} }
141
142=head3 return
143
144 my $return_value = $E->return;
145
146The value(s) returned by the failed subroutine. When the subroutine
147was called in a list context, this will always be a reference to an
148array containing the results. When the subroutine was called in
149a scalar context, this will be the actual scalar returned.
150
151=cut
152
153sub return { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{return} }
154
0b09a93a 155=head3 errno
156
157 my $errno = $E->errno;
158
159The value of C<$!> at the time when the exception occurred.
160
161B<NOTE>: This method will leave the main C<autodie::exception> class
162and become part of a role in the future. You should only call
163C<errno> for exceptions where C<$!> would reasonably have been
164set on failure.
165
166=cut
167
168# TODO: Make errno part of a role. It doesn't make sense for
169# everything.
170
171sub errno { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{errno}; }
172
7840a289 173=head3 eval_error
174
175 my $old_eval_error = $E->eval_error;
176
177The contents of C<$@> immediately after autodie triggered an
178exception. This may be useful when dealing with modules such
179as L<Text::Balanced> that set (but do not throw) C<$@> on error.
180
181=cut
182
183sub eval_error { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{eval_error}; }
184
0b09a93a 185=head3 matches
186
187 if ( $e->matches('open') ) { ... }
188
189 if ( $e ~~ 'open' ) { ... }
190
191C<matches> is used to determine whether a
192given exception matches a particular role. On Perl 5.10,
193using smart-match (C<~~>) with an C<autodie::exception> object
194will use C<matches> underneath.
195
196An exception is considered to match a string if:
197
198=over 4
199
200=item *
201
202For a string not starting with a colon, the string exactly matches the
203package and subroutine that threw the exception. For example,
204C<MyModule::log>. If the string does not contain a package name,
205C<CORE::> is assumed.
206
207=item *
208
209For a string that does start with a colon, if the subroutine
210throwing the exception I<does> that behaviour. For example, the
211C<CORE::open> subroutine does C<:file>, C<:io> and C<:all>.
212
213See L<autodie/CATEGORIES> for futher information.
