NAME

       Template::Exception - Exception handling class module

SYNOPSIS

           use Template::Exception;

           my $exception = Template::Exception->new($type, $info);
           $type = $exception->type;
           $info = $exception->info;
           ($type, $info) = $exception->type_info;

           print $exception->as_string();

           $handler = $exception->select_handler(\@candidates);

DESCRIPTION

       The "Template::Exception" module defines an object class for representing exceptions
       within the template processing life cycle.  Exceptions can be raised by modules within the
       Template Toolkit, or can be generated and returned by user code bound to template
       variables.

       Exceptions can be raised in a template using the "THROW" directive,

           [% THROW user.login 'no user id: please login' %]

       or by calling the throw() method on the current Template::Context object,

           $context->throw('user.passwd', 'Incorrect Password');
           $context->throw('Incorrect Password');    # type 'undef'

       or from Perl code by calling "die()" with a "Template::Exception" object,

           die (Template::Exception->new('user.denied', 'Invalid User ID'));

       or by simply calling "die()" with an error string.  This is automagically caught and
       converted to an  exception of '"undef"' type (that's the literal string '"undef"' rather
       than Perl's undefined value) which can then be handled in the usual way.

           die "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that";

       Each exception is defined by its type and a information component (e.g. error message).
       The type can be any identifying string and may contain dotted components (e.g. '"foo"',
       '"foo.bar"', '"foo.bar.baz"').  Exception types are considered to be hierarchical such
       that '"foo.bar"' would be a specific type of the more general '"foo"' type.

METHODS

   type()
       Returns the exception type.

   info()
       Returns the exception information.
