DESCRIPTION

This package modifies the consuming package and provides methods for trapping errors thrown from dispatched method calls.

INTEGRATES

This package integrates behaviors from:

Venus::Role::Tryable

METHODS

This package provides the following methods:

catch

catch(Str $method, Any @args) (Any)

The catch method traps any errors raised by executing the dispatched method call and returns the error string or error object. This method can return a list of values in list-context. This method supports dispatching, i.e. providing a method name and arguments whose return value will be acted on by this method.
