David Morel created THRIFT-3549:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Exceptions are not properly stringified in Perl library
                 Key: THRIFT-3549
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3549
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Perl - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.9.3
            Reporter: David Morel


since exceptions are Thrift::TException objects and are used in numerous places 
in die() statements, most of the time the error message would be along the 
lines of:
     {{(in cleanup) Thrift::TException=HASH(0x7fdaa2939900) at (eval 38) line 
31}}

which is absolutely useless. The patch below (as suggested on the cpan 
bugtracker) overloads stringification of the exception to present something 
more meaningful, like:
    {{(in cleanup) Thrift::TException error: Thrift::Socket: timed out reading 
from localhost:10000 (code 0) at (eval 37) line 31.}}
