Hi!
The Rakudo REPL terminates when the result of the given expression is a Failure
object, e.g. from an exception that is raised within an 'eval'.
I would expect the REPL to print an error message and continue.
Lithos
This is Rakudo Perl 6, version 2010.07-84-g0e5edb5 built on parrot 2.6.0 r48225
$ ./perl6
> die
Died
> eval 'die'
===SORRY!===
Died
(terminates)
$
Can also be demonstrated by directly constructing a Failure:
$ ./perl6
> Failure.new("OH NO!")
===SORRY!===
Method 'handled' not found for invocant of class 'Str'
(terminates)
$
