Just for a bit more backgroud: block eval indeed had some not-totally-implausible corner cases, as listed here: https://metacpan.org/pod/Try::Tiny#BACKGROUND AFAIK at least some of them were fixed in Perl 5.14: http://blog.twoshortplanks.com/2011/06/06/unexceptional-exceptions-in-perl-5-14/ I personally don't like Try::Tiny, because it changes how 'return' works inside an eval (well, try), and I'm too stupid to remember this change (and it bit me a few times). OTOH I never (even on ancient Perls had any problem with three issues mentioned in Try::Tiny - Background (but then "die Dummen hams Glück" as a local saying goes) And regarding using exceptions or not: I don't think you have a choice here. You will always encounter exceptions (disk full, DB-Server crashed, ...), so you might as well get used to them and incorporate them in your toolkit. I know nothing about .NET, so maybe exceptions are horrible there. But in Perl they work quite well, IMO...
