Re: Strack traces with Exception::Class

in reply to Strack traces with Exception::Class

From Exception::Class documentation:

       * Trace($boolean)
           Each "Exception::Class::Base" subclass can be set
           individually to include a a stracktrace when the
           "as_string" method is called.  The default is to not
           include a stacktrace.  Calling this method with a
           value changes this behavior.  It always returns the
           current value (after any change is applied).

           This value is inherited by any subclasses.  However,
           if this value is set for a subclass, it will there-
           after be independent of the value in "Excep-
           tion::Class::Base".

           This is a class method, not an object method.

I.e if you need stacktraces for exception class MyException (and its childs) you need to add

MyException->Trace(1);

Alternatively you can just redefine as_string() method to print uncaught exceptions as you wish.

Hopefully, this isn't too old to post to.

I just had to solve this problem myself. I wanted all exceptions to show stack traces all the time. Since Trace($boolean) is a class method, I just did this (see below) once, and it worked for all child/sub classes and their objects.

Exception::Class::Base->Trace(1);

I put that right after my use statement.
