NAME

Helios::Error::FatalNoRetry - fatal exception class for Helios indicating a job failed and the error was so serious the job should not be reattempted.

SYNOPSIS

# in dodgy code:

use Error qw(:try);

sub dodgy {

	if ($something_bad) {
		throw Helios::Error::Fatal("Ah! Thats not gone well at all!");
	}
}


# in the caller of the dodgy code:

use Error qw(:try);

try {
	dodgy(@params);
} catch Helios::Error::FatalNoRetry with {
	my $e = shift;
	$self->logMsg( $e->text() );
	$self->failedJob( $job, $e->text() );
};

DESCRIPTION

Helios::Error::FatalNoRetry can be used to identify errors that cause a job not only to fail but to not be re-attempted by the job processing system. This implies an error that should be logged and the Schwartz job in question should be marked as permanently failed (with the Helios::Worker->failedJobPermanent() method).

Compare this to Helios::Error::Fatal, which implies a similar circumstance except the error isn't severe enough to prevent the system from re-attempting later.
