Member Function Documentation

arrayref BigSWAF::Exception::arguments (  arrayref  arguments  )

Get/set the arguments associated with this exception. The first argument is expected to be a message (see message()). Parameters: arguments  a reference to a list of arguments Returns: a reference to the list of arguments

scalar BigSWAF::Exception::message (   )

Get the text associated with the exception. This text is identical to the first argument of arguments(). Returns: message text

retval BigSWAF::Exception::new (  scalar  this, list  arguments )

Create a new exception object. The arguments parameter is similiar to that of arguments().

retval BigSWAF::Exception::throw (  scalar  obj_or_class, list  arguments )

Throw an exception. This method can be used in two flavours: If passing a BigSWAF::Exception object as the first argument this exception is thrown. If not, then throw creates a new BigSWAF::Exception object using the arguments vector and throws this one. Therefore you can use throw as in throw BigSWAF::Exception( "short form" ) as well as in new BigSWAF::Exception( "long form" ) -> throw();
