  Tue Dec 29 16:24:03 2009 THEPLER [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

The docs for "try" mention "If no error occurred the value from the first block is returned...", but they do not mention what is returned if an error did occur.  Turns out that the value from the "catch" block is returned.  It would be nice if the docs explained that.

I'd provide a doc patch, but I don't really know why this is the desired behavior.  It does appear to be tested though.  At first I expected "try" to just do a bare "return;" if an error occurred, regardless of whether there was a catch block.  I'm not sure what's right, so some docs would help.

Thanks,
-Todd
