=head1 NAME
autodie::exception - Exceptions from autodying functions.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
eval {
use autodie;
open(my $fh, '<', 'some_file.txt');
...
};
if (my $E = $@) {
say "Ooops! ",$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 ( $e ~~ 'open' ) { ... }
C<matches> is used to determine whether a
given exception matches a particular role. On Perl 5.10,
using smart-match (C<~~>) with an C<autodie::exception> object
will use C<matches> underneath.
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.

=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.

=head3 register
autodie::exception->register( 'CORE::open' => \&mysub );
The C<register> method allows for the registration of a message
handler for a given subroutine. The full subroutine name including
the package should be used.
Registered message handlers will receive the C<autodie::exception>
object as the first parameter.

=head3 add_file_and_line
say "Problem occurred",$@->add_file_and_line;
Returns the string C< at %s line %d>, where C<%s> is replaced with
the filename, and C<%d> is replaced with the line number.
Primarily intended for use by format handlers.
=cut
# Simply produces the file and line number; intended to be added
# to the end of error messages.
sub add_file_and_line {
my ($this) = @_;
return sprintf(" at %s line %d\n", $this->file, $this->line);
}
=head3 stringify
say "The error was: ",$@->stringify;
Formats the error as a human readable string. Usually there's no
reason to call this directly, as it is used automatically if an
C<autodie::exception> object is ever used as a string.
Child classes can override this method to change how they're
stringified.

}

if $Carp::Verbose;
return $msg;
}
=head3 format_default
my $error_string = $E->format_default;
This produces the default error string for the given exception,
I<without using any registered message handlers>. It is primarily
intended to be called from a message handler when they have
been passed an exception they don't want to format.
Child classes can override this method to change how default
messages are formatted.
=cut
# TODO: This produces ugly errors. Is there any way we can
# dig around to find the actual variable names? I know perl 5.10
# does some dark and terrible magicks to find them for undef warnings.

# a good idea for other subs?

# * Replace globs with the string '$fh'

}
=head3 new
my $error = autodie::exception->new(
args => \@_,
function => "CORE::open",
errno => $!,
context => 'scalar',
return => undef,
);
Creates a new C<autodie::exception> object. Normally called
directly from an autodying function. The C<function> argument
is required, its the function we were trying to call that
generated the exception. The C<args> parameter is optional.
The C<errno> value is optional. In versions of C<autodie::exception>
1.99 and earlier the code would try to automatically use the
current value of C<$!>, but this was unreliable and is no longer
supported.
Atrributes such as package, file, and caller are determined
automatically, and cannot be specified.
