=head1 NAME

autodie::exception - Exceptions from autodying functions.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

eval {
        use autodie;

open(my $fh, '<', 'some_file.txt');

...
    };

if (my $E = $@) {
        say "Ooops!  ",$E->caller," had problems: $@";
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

When an L<autodie> enabled function fails, it generates an
C<autodie::exception> object.  This can be interrogated to
determine further information about the error that occurred.

This document is broken into two sections; those methods that
are most useful to the end-developer, and those methods for
anyone wishing to subclass or get very familiar with
C<autodie::exception>.

=head2 Common Methods

These methods are intended to be used in the everyday dealing
of exceptions.

The following assume that the error has been copied into
a separate scalar:

if ($E = $@) {
        ...
    }

This is not required, but is recommended in case any code
is called which may reset or alter C<$@>.

=cut

=head3 args

my $array_ref = $E->args;

Provides a reference to the arguments passed to the subroutine
that died.

=cut

sub args        { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{args}; }

=head3 function

my $sub = $E->function;

The subroutine (including package) that threw the exception.

=cut

sub function   { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{function};  }

=head3 file

my $file = $E->file;

The file in which the error occurred (eg, C<myscript.pl> or
C<MyTest.pm>).

=cut

sub file        { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{file};  }

=head3 package

my $package = $E->package;

The package from which the exceptional subroutine was called.

=cut

sub package     { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{package}; }

=head3 caller

my $caller = $E->caller;

The subroutine that I<called> the exceptional code.

=cut

sub caller      { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{caller};  }

=head3 line

my $line = $E->line;

The line in C<< $E->file >> where the exceptional code was called.

=cut

sub line        { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{line};  }

=head3 context

my $context = $E->context;

The context in which the subroutine was called by autodie; usually
the same as the context in which you called the autodying subroutine.
This can be 'list', 'scalar', or undefined (unknown).  It will never
be 'void', as C<autodie> always captures the return value in one way
or another.

For some core functions that always return a scalar value regardless
of their context (eg, C<chown>), this may be 'scalar', even if you
used a list context.

=cut

# TODO: The comments above say this can be undefined. Is that actually
# the case? (With 'system', perhaps?)

sub context     { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{context} }

=head3 return

my $return_value = $E->return;

The value(s) returned by the failed subroutine.  When the subroutine
was called in a list context, this will always be a reference to an
array containing the results.  When the subroutine was called in
a scalar context, this will be the actual scalar returned.

=cut

sub return      { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{return} }

=head3 errno

my $errno = $E->errno;

The value of C<$!> at the time when the exception occurred.

B<NOTE>: This method will leave the main C<autodie::exception> class
and become part of a role in the future.  You should only call
C<errno> for exceptions where C<$!> would reasonably have been
set on failure.

=cut

# TODO: Make errno part of a role.  It doesn't make sense for
# everything.

sub errno       { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{errno}; }

=head3 eval_error

my $old_eval_error = $E->eval_error;

The contents of C<$@> immediately after autodie triggered an
exception.  This may be useful when dealing with modules such
as L<Text::Balanced> that set (but do not throw) C<$@> on error.

=cut

sub eval_error { return $_[0]->{$PACKAGE}{eval_error}; }

=head3 matches

if ( $e->matches('open') ) { ... }

if ( $e ~~ 'open' ) { ... }

C<matches> is used to determine whether a
given exception matches a particular role.  On Perl 5.10,
using smart-match (C<~~>) with an C<autodie::exception> object
will use C<matches> underneath.

An exception is considered to match a string if:

=over 4

=item *

For a string not starting with a colon, the string exactly matches the
package and subroutine that threw the exception.  For example,
C<MyModule::log>.  If the string does not contain a package name,
C<CORE::> is assumed.

=item *

For a string that does start with a colon, if the subroutine
throwing the exception I<does> that behaviour.  For example, the
C<CORE::open> subroutine does C<:file>, C<:io> and C<:all>.

See L<autodie/CATEGORIES> for futher information.

=back

=cut

{
    my (%cache);

sub matches {
        my ($this, $that) = @_;

# TODO - Handle references
        croak "UNIMPLEMENTED" if ref $that;

my $sub = $this->function;

if ($DEBUG) {
            my $sub2 = $this->function;
            warn "Smart-matching $that against $sub / $sub2\n";
        }

# Direct subname match.
        return 1 if $that eq $sub;
        return 1 if $that !~ /:/ and "CORE::$that" eq $sub;
        return 0 if $that !~ /^:/;

# Cached match / check tags.
        require Fatal;

if (exists $cache{$sub}{$that}) {
            return $cache{$sub}{$that};
        }

# This rather awful looking line checks to see if our sub is in the
        # list of expanded tags, caches it, and returns the result.

return $cache{$sub}{$that} = grep { $_ eq $sub } @{ $this->_expand_tag($that) };

}

# This exists primarily so that child classes can override or
# augment it if they wish.

sub _expand_tag {
    my ($this, @args) = @_;

return Fatal->_expand_tag(@args);
}

=head2 Advanced methods

The following methods, while usable from anywhere, are primarily
intended for developers wishing to subclass C<autodie::exception>,
write code that registers custom error messages, or otherwise
work closely with the C<autodie::exception> model.

=head3 register

autodie::exception->register( 'CORE::open' => \&mysub );

The C<register> method allows for the registration of a message
handler for a given subroutine.  The full subroutine name including
the package should be used.

Registered message handlers will receive the C<autodie::exception>
object as the first parameter.

=cut

sub register {
    my ($class, $symbol, $handler) = @_;

croak "Incorrect call to autodie::register" if @_ != 3;

$formatter_of{$symbol} = $handler;

}

=head3 add_file_and_line

say "Problem occurred",$@->add_file_and_line;

Returns the string C< at %s line %d>, where C<%s> is replaced with
the filename, and C<%d> is replaced with the line number.

Primarily intended for use by format handlers.

=cut

# Simply produces the file and line number; intended to be added
# to the end of error messages.

sub add_file_and_line {
    my ($this) = @_;

return sprintf(" at %s line %d\n", $this->file, $this->line);
}

=head3 stringify

say "The error was: ",$@->stringify;

Formats the error as a human readable string.  Usually there's no
reason to call this directly, as it is used automatically if an
C<autodie::exception> object is ever used as a string.

Child classes can override this method to change how they're
stringified.

=cut

sub stringify {
    my ($this) = @_;

my $call        =  $this->function;

if ($DEBUG) {
        my $dying_pkg   = $this->package;
        my $sub   = $this->function;
        my $caller = $this->caller;
        warn "Stringifing exception for $dying_pkg :: $sub / $caller / $call\n";
    }

# TODO - This isn't using inheritance.  Should it?
    if ( my $sub = $formatter_of{$call} ) {
        return $sub->($this) . $this->add_file_and_line;
    }

return $this->format_default . $this->add_file_and_line;

}

=head3 format_default

my $error_string = $E->format_default;

This produces the default error string for the given exception,
I<without using any registered message handlers>.  It is primarily
intended to be called from a message handler when they have
been passed an exception they don't want to format.

Child classes can override this method to change how default
messages are formatted.

=cut

# TODO: This produces ugly errors.  Is there any way we can
# dig around to find the actual variable names?  I know perl 5.10
# does some dark and terrible magicks to find them for undef warnings.

my $call        =  $this->function;

local $! = $this->errno;

# TODO: This is probably a good idea for CORE, is it
    # a good idea for other subs?

# Trim package name off dying sub for error messages.
    $call =~ s/.*:://;

# Walk through all our arguments, and...
    #
    #   * Replace undef with the word 'undef'
    #   * Replace globs with the string '$fh'
    #   * Quote all other args.

my @args = @{ $this->args() };

foreach my $arg (@args) {
       if    (not defined($arg))   { $arg = 'undef' }
       elsif (ref($arg) eq "GLOB") { $arg = '$fh'   }
       else                        { $arg = qq{'$arg'} }
    }

# Format our beautiful error.

return "Can't $call(".  join(q{, }, @args) . "): $!" ;

# TODO - Handle user-defined errors from hash.

# TODO - Handle default error messages.

}

=head3 new

my $error = autodie::exception->new(
        args => \@_,
        function => "CORE::open",
        errno => $!,
        context => 'scalar',
        return => undef,
    );

Creates a new C<autodie::exception> object.  Normally called
directly from an autodying function.  The C<function> argument
is required, its the function we were trying to call that
generated the exception.  The C<args> parameter is optional.

The C<errno> value is optional.  In versions of C<autodie::exception>
1.99 and earlier the code would try to automatically use the
current value of C<$!>, but this was unreliable and is no longer
supported.

Atrributes such as package, file, and caller are determined
automatically, and cannot be specified.
