# NAME

# VERSION

version v0.4.1

# SYNOPSIS

    {

      package Foo;

      use Moose;

      use MooseX::Attribute::ValidateWithException;

      has foo => (

        isa => 'Str',

        is  => 'rw',

        required => 1,

      );

      __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable;

      no Moose;

    }

    use Try::Tiny;

    try {

      Foo->new( foo => { this_is => [qw( not what we were wanting )] } );

    } catch {

      say $_->name if blessed( $_ ) && $_->isa('Thingy');

    };

# DESCRIPTION

**ALPHA QUALITY SOFTWARE**.

At present, when an attribute fails validation, Moose internally die()'s with a

string. There is also no way to throw an exception object as part of the

validation message, ( in order to give more context on the problem ), without

also breaking how much of the validation works.

This module is an experiment in providing that feature, which really should be

done in Moose itself, and done better, which is why it has been given such an

obtuse name.

This module makes no promises of forwards compatibility with a future Moose

release, in order to permit Moose to do whatever they want and not worry about

"breaking code" that uses this module. ( So that they can easily replace this

module in incompatible ways )

**If your code breaking is unacceptable, do _not_ use this module**.

Use of this module assumes several things.

- 1. You are o.k. with your code breaking in a future Moose release.

- 2. You are o.k. with re-writing any and all code that depends on this

functionality, if a future Moose release is incompatible with this module.

I'm not saying I won't do my best to provide forwards compatibility, but it is

highly unlikely it will be possible, due to differences in package naming

which may be essential for handling exceptions.
