NAME

Error::Tiny - Tiny exceptions

SYNOPSIS

use Error::Tiny;

try {
    dangerous();
}
catch MyCustomException then {
    my $e = shift;

    ...everything whose parent is MyCustomException...
}
catch {
    my $e = shift;

    ...everything else goes here...
};

DESCRIPTION

Error::Tiny is a lightweight exceptions implementation.

FEATURES

Objects everywhere

You will always get an object in the catch block. No need to check if it's a blessed reference or anything like that. And there is no need for $SIG{__DIE__}!

Exception class built-in

Error::Tiny::Exception is a lightweight base exception class. It is easy to throw an exception:

Error::Tiny::Exception->throw('error');

WARNING

If you start getting strange behaviour when working with exceptions, make sure that you use Error::Tiny in the correct package in the correct place. Somehow perl doesn't report this as an error.

This will not work:

use Error::Tiny;
package MyPackage;

try { ... };
