Hi monks,

I am trying to use try catch from Try::Tiny module to catch and exception class object.

use Try::Tiny;
 use Exception::Class (
      'MyException',

      'Commands' => { isa => 'MyException' },

      'Timeout' => {
          isa         => 'Commands',
          description => 'These exceptions are resulted from running t
+he naviseccli commands'
      }

  );

 try{
   MyException->throw( error => 'I feel funny. custom string based on 
+error' ) ;
   }  catch{
   my $e=$_;
  if ( $e == Exception::Class->caught('MyException') ) {
      warn $e->error, "\n", $e->trace->as_string, "\n";
      warn join ' ', $e->euid, $e->egid, $e->uid, $e->gid, $e->pid, $e
+->time;

      #exit;
  }
};

I see that try did not throw the error. Any ideas why?. Try::Tiny documentation says that $_ should contain the error. Is try of Try::Tiny module capable of throwing exception class object and can it be stored in $_?

I do not want to use die in the try block because I do not want the program to exit but retry after some time or for some exceptions just ignore them after printing a log message.

Thanks in advance!
