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.
Yes, this seems to be a bug. I think the problem lies within this
piece of code from PJS_construct_perl_object (in JavaScript.xs)
if (SvROK(pcls->cons)) {
SV *rsv;
SV *pkg = newSVpv(pcls->pkg, 0);
perl_call_sv_with_jsvals_rsv(cx, obj,
pcls->cons, pkg,
argc, argv, &rsv);
SvREFCNT_inc(rsv);
JS_SetPrivate(cx, obj, (void *) rsv);
}
return JS_TRUE;
perl_call_sv_with_jsvals_rsv returns JS_FALSE if it throws an
exception so we should also return JS_FALSE.
Please report this as an bug in RT and I'll fix it in the next release.
Thanks,
Claes
