NAME

autodie::exception::system - Exceptions from autodying system().

SYNOPSIS

    eval {
        use autodie qw(system);

        system($cmd, @args);

    };

    if (my $E = $@) {
        say "Ooops!  ",$E->caller," had problems: $@";
    }

DESCRIPTION

This is a autodie::exception class for failures from the "system" command.

Presently there is no way to interrogate an "autodie::exception::system" object for the command, exit status, and other information you'd expect such an object to hold. The interface will be expanded to accommodate this in the future.

stringify

When stringified, "autodie::exception::system" objects currently use the message generated by IPC::System::Simple.
