+=head1 NAME
+
+Try::Tiny - minimal try/catch with proper preservation of $@
+
+=head1 VERSION
+
+version 0.21
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+You can use Try::Tiny's C<try> and C<catch> to expect and handle exceptional
+conditions, avoiding quirks in Perl and common mistakes:
+
+ # handle errors with a catch handler
+ try {
+ die "foo";
+ } catch {
+ warn "caught error: $_"; # not $@
+ };
+
+You can also use it like a standalone C<eval> to catch and ignore any error
+conditions. Obviously, this is an extreme measure not to be undertaken
+lightly:
+
+ # just silence errors
+ try {
+ die "foo";
+ };
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module provides bare bones C<try>/C<catch>/C<finally> statements that are designed to
+minimize common mistakes with eval blocks, and NOTHING else.
+
+This is unlike L<TryCatch> which provides a nice syntax and avoids adding
+another call stack layer, and supports calling C<return> from the C<try> block to
+return from the parent subroutine. These extra features come at a cost of a few
+dependencies, namely L<Devel::Declare> and L<Scope::Upper> which are
+occasionally problematic, and the additional catch filtering uses L<Moose>
+type constraints which may not be desirable either.
+
+The main focus of this module is to provide simple and reliable error handling
+for those having a hard time installing L<TryCatch>, but who still want to
+write correct C<eval> blocks without 5 lines of boilerplate each time.
+
+It's designed to work as correctly as possible in light of the various
+pathological edge cases (see L</BACKGROUND>) and to be compatible with any style
+of error values (simple strings, references, objects, overloaded objects, etc).
+
+If the C<try> block dies, it returns the value of the last statement executed in
+the C<catch> block, if there is one. Otherwise, it returns C<undef> in scalar
+context or the empty list in list context. The following examples all
+assign C<"bar"> to C<$x>:
+
+ my $x = try { die "foo" } catch { "bar" };
+ my $x = try { die "foo" } || { "bar" };
+ my $x = (try { die "foo" }) // { "bar" };
+
+ my $x = eval { die "foo" } || "bar";
+
+You can add C<finally> blocks, yielding the following:
+
+ my $x;
+ try { die 'foo' } finally { $x = 'bar' };
+ try { die 'foo' } catch { warn "Got a die: $_" } finally { $x = 'bar' };
+
+C<finally> blocks are always executed making them suitable for cleanup code
+which cannot be handled using local. You can add as many C<finally> blocks to a
+given C<try> block as you like.
+
+Note that adding a C<finally> block without a preceding C<catch> block
+suppresses any errors. This behaviour is consistent with using a standalone
+C<eval>, but it is not consistent with C<try>/C<finally> patterns found in
+other programming languages, such as Java, Python, Javascript or C#. If you
+learnt the C<try>/C<finally> pattern from one of these languages, watch out for
+this.
+
+=head1 EXPORTS
+
+All functions are exported by default using L<Exporter>.
+
+If you need to rename the C<try>, C<catch> or C<finally> keyword consider using
+L<Sub::Import> to get L<Sub::Exporter>'s flexibility.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item try (&;@)
+
+Takes one mandatory C<try> subroutine, an optional C<catch> subroutine and C<finally>
+subroutine.
+
+The mandatory subroutine is evaluated in the context of an C<eval> block.
+
+If no error occurred the value from the first block is returned, preserving
+list/scalar context.
+
+If there was an error and the second subroutine was given it will be invoked
+with the error in C<$_> (localized) and as that block's first and only
+argument.
+
+C<$@> does B<not> contain the error. Inside the C<catch> block it has the same
+value it had before the C<try> block was executed.
+
+Note that the error may be false, but if that happens the C<catch> block will
+still be invoked.
+
+Once all execution is finished then the C<finally> block, if given, will execute.
+
+=item catch (&;@)
+
+Intended to be used in the second argument position of C<try>.
+
+Returns a reference to the subroutine it was given but blessed as
+C<Try::Tiny::Catch> which allows try to decode correctly what to do
+with this code reference.
+
+ catch { ... }
+
+Inside the C<catch> block the caught error is stored in C<$_>, while previous
+value of C<$@> is still available for use. This value may or may not be
+meaningful depending on what happened before the C<try>, but it might be a good
+idea to preserve it in an error stack.
+
+For code that captures C<$@> when throwing new errors (i.e.
+L<Class::Throwable>), you'll need to do:
+
+ local $@ = $_;
+
+=item finally (&;@)
+
+ try { ... }
+ catch { ... }
+ finally { ... };
+
+Or
+
+ try { ... }
+ finally { ... };
+
+Or even
+
+ try { ... }
+ finally { ... }
+ catch { ... };
+
+Intended to be the second or third element of C<try>. C<finally> blocks are always
+executed in the event of a successful C<try> or if C<catch> is run. This allows
+you to locate cleanup code which cannot be done via C<local()> e.g. closing a file
+handle.
+
+When invoked, the C<finally> block is passed the error that was caught. If no
+error was caught, it is passed nothing. (Note that the C<finally> block does not
+localize C<$_> with the error, since unlike in a C<catch> block, there is no way
+to know if C<$_ == undef> implies that there were no errors.) In other words,
+the following code does just what you would expect:
+
+ try {
+ die_sometimes();
+ } catch {
+ # ...code run in case of error
+ } finally {
+ if (@_) {
+ print "The try block died with: @_\n";
+ } else {
+ print "The try block ran without error.\n";
+ }
+ };
+
+B<You must always do your own error handling in the C<finally> block>. C<Try::Tiny> will
+not do anything about handling possible errors coming from code located in these
+blocks.
+
+Furthermore B<exceptions in C<finally> blocks are not trappable and are unable
+to influence the execution of your program>. This is due to limitation of
+C<DESTROY>-based scope guards, which C<finally> is implemented on top of. This
+may change in a future version of Try::Tiny.
+
+In the same way C<catch()> blesses the code reference this subroutine does the same
+except it bless them as C<Try::Tiny::Finally>.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 BACKGROUND
+
+There are a number of issues with C<eval>.
+
+=head2 Clobbering $@
+
+When you run an C<eval> block and it succeeds, C<$@> will be cleared, potentially
+clobbering an error that is currently being caught.
+
+This causes action at a distance, clearing previous errors your caller may have
+not yet handled.
+
+C<$@> must be properly localized before invoking C<eval> in order to avoid this
+issue.
+
+More specifically, C<$@> is clobbered at the beginning of the C<eval>, which
+also makes it impossible to capture the previous error before you die (for
+instance when making exception objects with error stacks).
+
+For this reason C<try> will actually set C<$@> to its previous value (the one
+available before entering the C<try> block) in the beginning of the C<eval>
+block.
+
+=head2 Localizing $@ silently masks errors
+
+Inside an C<eval> block, C<die> behaves sort of like:
+
+ sub die {
+ $@ = $_[0];
+ return_undef_from_eval();
+ }
+
+This means that if you were polite and localized C<$@> you can't die in that
+scope, or your error will be discarded (printing "Something's wrong" instead).
+
+The workaround is very ugly:
+
+ my $error = do {
+ local $@;
+ eval { ... };
+ $@;
+ };
+
+ ...
+ die $error;
+
+=head2 $@ might not be a true value
+
+This code is wrong:
+
+ if ( $@ ) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+because due to the previous caveats it may have been unset.
+
+C<$@> could also be an overloaded error object that evaluates to false, but
+that's asking for trouble anyway.
+
+The classic failure mode is:
+
+ sub Object::DESTROY {
+ eval { ... }
+ }
+
+ eval {
+ my $obj = Object->new;
+
+ die "foo";
+ };
+
+ if ( $@ ) {
+
+ }
+
+In this case since C<Object::DESTROY> is not localizing C<$@> but still uses
+C<eval>, it will set C<$@> to C<"">.
+
+The destructor is called when the stack is unwound, after C<die> sets C<$@> to
+C<"foo at Foo.pm line 42\n">, so by the time C<if ( $@ )> is evaluated it has
+been cleared by C<eval> in the destructor.
+
+The workaround for this is even uglier than the previous ones. Even though we
+can't save the value of C<$@> from code that doesn't localize, we can at least
+be sure the C<eval> was aborted due to an error:
+
+ my $failed = not eval {
+ ...
+
+ return 1;
+ };
+
+This is because an C<eval> that caught a C<die> will always return a false
+value.
+
+=head1 SHINY SYNTAX
+
+Using Perl 5.10 you can use L<perlsyn/"Switch statements">.
+
+The C<catch> block is invoked in a topicalizer context (like a C<given> block),
+but note that you can't return a useful value from C<catch> using the C<when>
+blocks without an explicit C<return>.
+
+This is somewhat similar to Perl 6's C<CATCH> blocks. You can use it to
+concisely match errors:
+
+ try {
+ require Foo;
+ } catch {
+ when (/^Can't locate .*?\.pm in \@INC/) { } # ignore
+ default { die $_ }
+ };
+
+=head1 CAVEATS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+C<@_> is not available within the C<try> block, so you need to copy your
+arglist. In case you want to work with argument values directly via C<@_>
+aliasing (i.e. allow C<$_[1] = "foo">), you need to pass C<@_> by reference:
+
+ sub foo {
+ my ( $self, @args ) = @_;
+ try { $self->bar(@args) }
+ }
+
+or
+
+ sub bar_in_place {
+ my $self = shift;
+ my $args = \@_;
+ try { $_ = $self->bar($_) for @$args }
+ }
+
+=item *
+
+C<return> returns from the C<try> block, not from the parent sub (note that
+this is also how C<eval> works, but not how L<TryCatch> works):
+
+ sub parent_sub {
+ try {
+ die;
+ }
+ catch {
+ return;
+ };
+
+ say "this text WILL be displayed, even though an exception is thrown";
+ }
+
+Instead, you should capture the return value:
+
+ sub parent_sub {
+ my $success = try {
+ die;
+ 1;
+ };
+ return unless $success;
+
+ say "This text WILL NEVER appear!";
+ }
+ # OR
+ sub parent_sub_with_catch {
+ my $success = try {
+ die;
+ 1;
+ }
+ catch {
+ # do something with $_
+ return undef; #see note
+ };
+ return unless $success;
+
+ say "This text WILL NEVER appear!";
+ }
+
+Note that if you have a C<catch> block, it must return C<undef> for this to work,
+since if a C<catch> block exists, its return value is returned in place of C<undef>
+when an exception is thrown.
+
+=item *
+
+C<try> introduces another caller stack frame. L<Sub::Uplevel> is not used. L<Carp>
+will not report this when using full stack traces, though, because
+C<%Carp::Internal> is used. This lack of magic is considered a feature.
+
+=item *
+
+The value of C<$_> in the C<catch> block is not guaranteed to be the value of
+the exception thrown (C<$@>) in the C<try> block. There is no safe way to
+ensure this, since C<eval> may be used unhygenically in destructors. The only
+guarantee is that the C<catch> will be called if an exception is thrown.
+
+=item *
+
+The return value of the C<catch> block is not ignored, so if testing the result
+of the expression for truth on success, be sure to return a false value from
+the C<catch> block:
+
+ my $obj = try {
+ MightFail->new;
+ } catch {
+ ...
+
+ return; # avoid returning a true value;
+ };
+
+ return unless $obj;
+
+=item *
+
+C<$SIG{__DIE__}> is still in effect.
+
+Though it can be argued that C<$SIG{__DIE__}> should be disabled inside of
+C<eval> blocks, since it isn't people have grown to rely on it. Therefore in
+the interests of compatibility, C<try> does not disable C<$SIG{__DIE__}> for
+the scope of the error throwing code.
+
+=item *
+
+Lexical C<$_> may override the one set by C<catch>.
+
+For example Perl 5.10's C<given> form uses a lexical C<$_>, creating some
+confusing behavior:
+
+ given ($foo) {
+ when (...) {
+ try {
+ ...
+ } catch {
+ warn $_; # will print $foo, not the error
+ warn $_[0]; # instead, get the error like this
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
+Note that this behavior was changed once again in L<Perl5 version 18
+|https://metacpan.org/module/perldelta#given-now-aliases-the-global-_>.
+However, since the entirety of lexical C<$_> is now L<considired experimental
+|https://metacpan.org/module/perldelta#Lexical-_-is-now-experimental>, it
+is unclear whether the new version 18 behavior is final.
