Either use template-level TRY blocks:
TRY;
USE c = Class('MyClass');
v = c.some_method(args);
CATCH;
FILTER stderr;
"Caught ${error.type} with ${error.info}\n";
END;
END;
or be sure you're looking at the errors coming out of ->process:
eval {
...
$tt->process(...)
or die $tt->error;
...
};
if ($@) {
if (UNIVERSAL::isa($@, "Template::Exception")) {
## error came from Template or below
if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]>type eq "undef") { # yes, the letters u n d e f!
die [EMAIL PROTECTED]>info; # the error from below Template (perl
code plugins)
} else {
## the error came from a Template step, do what you want
die "$@"; # stringifies the Template error
}
} else {
## the error came from above Template (something else in the eval)
die $@; # throw it again
}
}
