Subroutines/Methods

BUILD

After construction the current exception is cached so that it can become the previous exception the next time an exception is thrown

caught

   $exception_object_ref = Unexpected->caught( @optional_args );

Catches and returns a thrown exception or generates a new exception if $EVAL_ERROR has been set. Returns either an exception object or undefined

clone

   $cloned_exception_object_ref = $exception_object_ref->clone( $args );

Returns a clone of the invocant. The optional $args hash reference mutates the returned clone

throw

   Unexpected->throw 'Path [_1] not found', args => [ 'pathname' ];

Create (or re-throw) an exception. If the passed parameter is a blessed reference it is re-thrown. If a single scalar is passed it is taken to be an error message, a new exception is created with all other parameters taking their default values. If more than one parameter is passed the it is treated as a list and used to instantiate the new exception. The 'error' parameter must be provided in this case

throw_on_error

   Unexpected->throw_on_error( @optional_args );

Calls "caught" passing in the options @args and if there was an exception "throw"s it otherwise returns undefined
