perl-Exception-Class

Module that allows you to declare real exception classes in Perl

*RECOMMENDATION 1*: If you are writing modern Perl code with Moose or Moo I highly recommend using Throwable instead of this module. *RECOMMENDATION 2*: Whether or not you use Throwable, you should use Try::Tiny. Exception::Class allows you to declare exception hierarchies in your modules in a "Java-esque" manner. It features a simple interface allowing programmers to 'declare' exception classes at compile time. It also has a base exception class, Exception::Class::Base, that can be easily extended. It is designed to make structured exception handling simpler and better by encouraging people to use hierarchies of exceptions in their applications, as opposed to a single catch-all exception class. This module does not implement any try/catch syntax. Please see the "OTHER EXCEPTION MODULES (try/catch syntax)" section for more information on how to get this syntax. You will also want to look at the documentation for Exception::Class::Base, which is the default base class for all exception objects created by this module.
