Am I approaching this the wrong way, or is this perhaps something to report
in rt?
It looks like when I bind a class and throw an error (such as a die()
statement or a failed DB connect) from within a static or object method, it
bubbles beautifully through JS as an exception.
However when I bind a class and register some perl sub as a *constructor*,
any dies or errors from there seem to make the constructor abort silently
instead.
Example: in the code attached below, the perl diagnostic displays a blessed
object. when you uncomment "test point 2" you get a well documented error
message. When you uncomment "Test point #1" however, the message goes
unreported and you get a blank (uncontructed) object instead of a blessed
hash.
Thank you for your consideration. :)
