NAME

       Throwable - a role for classes that can be thrown

VERSION

       version 0.200013

SYNOPSIS

         package Redirect;
         # NOTE: Moo can also be used here instead of Moose
         use Moose;
         with 'Throwable';

         has url => (is => 'ro');

       ...then later...

         Redirect->throw({ url => $url });

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 $@
       and calls "die $self".

       Throwable is implemented with Moo, so you can stick to Moo or use Moose, as you prefer.

ATTRIBUTES

   previous_exception
       This attribute is created automatically, and stores the value of $@ when the Throwable
       object is created.  This is done on a best effort basis.  $@ is subject to lots of spooky
       action-at-a-distance.  For now, there are clearly ways that the previous exception could
       be lost.

METHODS

   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 "die".

       If called on an object that does Throwable, the object will be rethrown.
