Re: Use of "die" in OO modules

[kyle]

I like to use Exception::Class to throw exceptions. If the caller wants to ignore my gravely important problems, it will have to do that explicitly. It's nice to have a module that contains all the exceptions I'll want to throw. It looks like:

package My::Exceptions;

use Exception::Class
    (
     'My::Bad' =>
     { description => 'Way bad', },
     'My::OtherBad' =>
     { description => 'Bad as well',
       isa => 'My::Bad', },
    );
1;

Then anywhere I need them, just use My::Exceptions and My::Bad->throw( error => 'Woe is me' ).
