Exception/Class/DBI version 1.02
================================

This module offers a set of DBI-specific exception classes. They inherit from
Exception::Class::Base, the base class for all exception objects created by
the [Exception::Class](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Exception::Class) module
from the CPAN. Exception::Class::DBI itself offers a single class method,
`handler()`, that returns a code reference appropriate for passing the
[DBI](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?DBI) `HandleError` attribute.

The exception classes created by Exception::Class::DBI are designed to be
thrown in certain DBI contexts; the code reference returned by `handler()` and
passed to the DBI `HandleError attribute determines the context, assembles the
necessary metadata, and throws the apopropriate exception.

Each of the Exception::Class::DBI classes offers a set of object accessor
methods in addition to those provided by Exception::Class::Base. These can be
used to output detailed output in the event of an exception.
