Re^2: Throw from within a DESTROY block

in thread Throw from within a DESTROY block

There is no rest. The question is:

How do I massage perl (with a trick, with XS, whatever) to throw a real (as in eval-trappable) exception from within some DESTROY of some object being destroyed.

Using `die`. The catch is that Perl's calls DESTROY inside of an `eval` (effectively) so it doesn't go far. If you want to throw something catchable outside of DESTROY, it'll have to be thrown from outside of DESTROY.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
