config::model::exception

Config::Model::Exception(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     Config::Model::Exception(3pm)

NAME

       Config::Model::Exception - Exception mechanism for configuration model

VERSION

       version 2.021

SYNOPSIS

	# internal

DESCRIPTION

       You must read Exception::Class before reading on.

       This module creates all the exception class used by Config::Model.

       All exception class name begins with "Config::Model::Exception::"

       The exception classes are:

       "Any"
	   Base class. It accepts an "object" argument. The user must pass the reference of the object where the exception occurred. The object
	   name will be used to generate the error message.

	 TODO: list all exception classes and hierarchy.

How to get trace
       By default, most of the exceptions will not print out the stack trace. For debug purpose, you can force a stack trace.

       For instance, if you want a stack trace for an "unknown element" error, you must add this line in your script:

	 Config::Model::Exception::UnknownElement->Trace(1) ;

       If you're not sure which class to trace, add this line in your script:

	 Config::Model::Exception::Any->Trace(1) ;
