| Subject: | Errors in _load_class not propagated |
I was tracking down a problem with an web application that uses Class::DBI tonight, where all dependencies are installed as part of the application and having major problems. It turns out that I had missed a single module, but the error message never got propagated up to the browser in _load_class(). The comment says it does, but it doesn't work for me. ;-)
A patch is attached which explicitely passes the error message to die(). This happened with both 5.8.4 and .3.
