Move to Throwable

[xsawyerx]

Currently errors are handled poorly by Dancer2::Core::Error.

Using Throwable would be a major improvement and in the best direction. It will help remove a lot of code, keep the codebase clear, and our heads clean and relaxed. :)

People who hate D2::C::Error: @shumphrey, @mickeyn. :)

👍

(I really do hate that awful module :))

👍 Removing code in favour of a high quality CPAN module is almost always a good idea.

There are four types of errors:

• User requested to return an error (send_error)
• User code died (similar to send_error but uses the default code, has a stack trace, etc.)
• Internal core code raised an exception (using an exception object)
• Internal core code died (does not create an exception object)

We need to also think of serializers:

• If there is a defined serializer, we should serialize the error
• If there isn't a serializer, we should render an HTML

Funny enough, serializers could die too. Imagine serializing an exception object which then crashes. Another issue, though.
