",$E->caller," had problems: $@"; } =head1 DESCRIPTION When an L<autodie> enabled function fails, it generates an C<autodie::exception> object. This can be interrogated to determine further information about the error that occurred. This document is broken into two sections; those methods that are most useful to the end-developer, and those methods for anyone wishing to subclass or get very familiar with C<autodie::exception>. =head2 Common Methods These methods are intended to be used in the everyday dealing of exceptions. The following assume that the error has been copied into a separate scalar: if ($E = $@) { ... } This is not required, but is recommended in case any code is called which may reset or alter C<$@>. =cut =head3 args my $array_ref = $E->args; Provides a reference to the arguments passed to the subroutine that died. =cut sub args { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{args}; } =head3 function my $sub = $E->function; The subroutine (including package) that threw the exception. =cut sub function { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{function}; } =head3 file my $file = $E->file; The file in which the error occurred (eg, C<myscript.pl> or C<MyTest.pm>). =cut sub file { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{file}; } =head3 package my $package = $E->package; The package from which the exceptional subroutine was called. =cut sub package { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{package}; } =head3 caller my $caller = $E->caller; The subroutine that I<called> the exceptional code. =cut sub caller { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{caller}; } =head3 line my $line = $E->line; The line in C<< $E->file >> where the exceptional code was called. =cut sub line { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{line}; } =head3 context my $context = $E->context; The context in which the subroutine was called by autodie; usually the same as the context in which you called the autodying subroutine. This can be 'list', 'scalar', or undefined (unknown). It will never be 'void', as C<autodie> always captures the return value in one way or another. For some core functions that always return a scalar value regardless of their context (eg, C<chown>), this may be 'scalar', even if you used a list context. =cut # TODO: The comments above say this can be undefined. Is that actually # the case? (With 'system', perhaps?) sub context { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{context} } =head3 return my $return_value = $E->return; The value(s) returned by the failed subroutine. When the subroutine was called in a list context, this will always be a reference to an array containing the results. When the subroutine was called in a scalar context, this will be the actual scalar returned. =cut sub return { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{return} } =head3 errno my $errno = $E->errno; The value of C<$!> at the time when the exception occurred. B<NOTE>: This method will leave the main C<autodie::exception> class and become part of a role in the future. You should only call C<errno> for exceptions where C<$!> would reasonably have been set on failure. =cut # TODO: Make errno part of a role. It doesn't make sense for # everything. sub errno { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{errno}; } =head3 eval_error my $old_eval_error = $E->eval_error; The contents of C<$@> immediately after autodie triggered an exception. This may be useful when dealing with modules such as L<Text::Balanced> that set (but do not throw) C<$@> on error. =cut sub eval_error { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{eval_error}; } =head3 matches if ( $e->matches('open') ) { ... } if ( 'open' ~~ $e ) { ... } C<matches> is used to determine whether a given exception matches a particular role. An exception is considered to match a string if: =over 4 =item * For a string not starting with a colon, the string exactly matches the package and subroutine that threw the exception. For example, C<MyModule::log>. If the string does not contain a package name, C<CORE::> is assumed. =item * For a string that does start with a colon, if the subroutine throwing the exception I<does> that behaviour. For example, the C<CORE::open> subroutine does C<:file>, C<:io> and C<:all>. See L<autodie/CATEGORIES> for further information. On Perl 5.10 and above, using smart-match (C<~~>) with an C<autodie::exception> object will use C<matches> underneath. This module used to recommend using smart-match with the exception object on the left hand side, but in future Perls that is likely to stop working. The smart-match facility of this class should only be used with the exception object on the right hand side. Having the exception object on the right is both future-proof and portable to older Perls, back to 5.10. Beware that this facility can only be relied upon when it is certain that the exception object actually is an C<autodie::exception> object; it is no more capable than an explicit call to the C<matches> method. =back =cut { my (%cache); sub matches { my ($this, $that) = @_; # TODO - Handle references croak "UNIMPLEMENTED" if ref $that; my $sub = $this->function; if ($DEBUG) { my $sub2 = $this->function; warn "Smart-matching $that against $sub / $sub2\n"; } # Direct subname match. return 1 if $that eq $sub; return 1 if $that !~ /:/ and "CORE::$that" eq $sub; return 0 if $that !~ /^:/; # Cached match / check tags. require Fatal; if (exists $cache{$sub}{$that}) { return $cache{$sub}{$that}; } # This rather awful looking line checks to see if our sub is in the # list of expanded tags, caches it, and returns the result. return $cache{$sub}{$that} = grep { $_ eq $sub } @{ $this->_expand_tag($that) }; } } # This exists primarily so that child classes can override or # augment it if they wish. sub _expand_tag { my ($this, @args) = @_; return Fatal->_expand_tag(@args); } =head2 Advanced methods The following methods, while usable from anywhere, are primarily intended for developers wishing to subclass C<autodie::exception>, write code that registers custom error messages, or otherwise work closely with the C<autodie::exception> model. =cut # The table below records customer formatters. # TODO - Should this be a package var instead? # TODO - Should these be in a completely different file, or # perhaps loaded on demand?
