```{index} single: autodie::exception::system (pragma) ``` # autodie::exception::system Exceptions from autodying system(). ## SYNOPSIS ```perl eval { use autodie qw(system); system($cmd, @args); }; if (my $E = $@) { say "Ooops! ",$E->caller," had problems: $@"; } ``` ## DESCRIPTION This is a [autodie::exception](../exception.md) 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](https://metacpan.org/pod/IPC::System::Simple). ## LICENSE Copyright (C)2008 Paul Fenwick This is free software.
