NAME

Apache::*::Error - Exception classes for Apache::Request, Apache::Upload, Apache::Cookie::Jar and Apache::Cookie

SYNOPSIS

$req = Apache::Request->new($r);
$jar = Apache::Cookie::Jar->new($r);

$req->args_status(1); # artificial error status = 1 for I<query-string> parser
$jar->status(2);      # artificial error status = 2 for I<Cookie> header parser

eval { $req->parse };
ok $@->isa("Apache::Request::Error");
ok $@ == 1;
eval { @cookies = $jar->cookies };
ok $@->isa("Apache::Cookie::Jar::Error");
ok $@ == 2;
@cookies = $@->cookies; # same method does not fail on Error object

DESCRIPTION

This manpage documents the Apache::*::Error classes provided by the Apache::Request, Apache::Upload, and Apache::Cookie modules. Error classes are all derived from APR::Error and the class which first produced the error. Unlike the object that created it, an Error object will not itself throw an error by calling its methods.

Apache::Request::Error

These exceptions are derived from APR::Error and Apache::Request, and indicate that an error occurred during param parsing.

Apache::Upload::Error

These exceptions are derived from APR::Error and Apache::Upload, and indicate that some Apache::Upload method failed (often caused by a filesystem error).

Apache::Cookie::Jar::Error

These exceptions are derived from APR::Error and Apache::Cookie::Jar, and indicate that the cookie parser failed to successfully parse the incoming Cookie header.

Apache::Cookie::Error

These exceptions are derived from APR::Error and Apache::Cookie. Their presence indicates that an Apache::Cookie method failed. Typically they are caused by

1) attempting to bake(2) a non-compliant cookie, 
2) attempting to set an unsupported cookie attribute.
