How do I throw an exception when my database API reports an error code? The database implementation does not throw exceptions so I have to.
use the die() function... perldoc -f die
$dbh->whatever($query) or die $dbh->errstr;
Your specific API would have more info on specifically how to do it for that.
You may also be able to use the Raise_Error (or something like that) option when creating a new $dbh onject.
without more specific info about the how the dbh is created or used its difficult to be precise.
