=head1 NAME
Throwable - a role for classes that can be thrown
=head1 VERSION
version 0.102080
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package Redirect;
use Moose;
with 'Throwable';
has url => (is => 'ro');
...then later...
Redirect->throw({ url => $url });
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Throwable is a role for classes that are meant to be thrown as exceptions to
standard program flow. It is very simple and does only two things: saves any
previous value for C<$@> and calls C<die $self>.
=head1 ATTRIBUTES
=head2 previous_exception
This attribute is created automatically, and stores the value of C<$@> when the
Throwable object is created.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 throw
Something::Throwable->throw({ attr => $value });
This method will call new, passing all arguments along to new, and will then
use the created object as the only argument to C<die>.
If called on an object that does Throwable, the object will be rethrown.
