Subject: try does not handle errors that are references to objects that cannot "throw"
If Error::try catches an thrown exception that does not support "throw", it breaks (such as APR::Error). I got around this by adding UNIVERSAL::can and changing line 396: throw $err if defined($err); to: if ( defined $err ) { throw $err if $err->can('throw'); die $err; # perhaps there is a better alternative? } Ted

This problem and a related one is fixed in my version of Error.pm that can be found here: svn://svn.berlios.de/web-cpan/Error.pm/trunk/module/ I added a test for it, as well. Regards, Shlomi Fish Show quoted text
