SYNOPSIS

    use Exception::Simple;

    };
    try{
        Exception::Simple->throw( 
            'error' => 'oh noes!',
            'data' => $data,
        );

DESCRIPTION

pretty simple exception class. auto creates argument accessors.

simple, lightweight and extensible are this modules goals.

METHODS

throw

    #with just one argument $@->error is set
    Exception::Simple->throw( 'error message' );
    # $@ stringifies to $@->error

    #or set multiple arguments (creates accessors)
    Exception::Simple->throw( 
        error => 'error message',
        data => 'cutom atrribute',
    );
    # warn $@->data or something

rethrow

say you catch an error, but then you want to uncatch it

    use Try::Tiny;

    try{
        Exception:Simple->throw( 'foobar' );
    } catch {
        if ( $_ eq 'foobar' ){
        #not our error, rethrow
            $_->rethrow; 
        }
    };

error

accessor for error, if its been set
