Re: Moose Type Constraints violations to warnings?

For Mouse this monkeypatching would work:

    diff --git a/xs-src/MouseUtil.xs b/xs-src/MouseUtil.xs
    index 3ec7d8c..e321f71 100644
    --- a/xs-src/MouseUtil.xs
    +++ b/xs-src/MouseUtil.xs
    @@ -119,7 +119,6 @@ mouse_throw_error(SV* const metaobject, SV*
const data /* not used */, const cha
             else {
                 call_pv("Mouse::Util::throw_error", G_VOID);
             }
    -        croak("throw_error() did not throw the error (%"SVf")", message);
         }
     }

Followed by:

    {
    package Mouse::Error::WarnOnly;
    use Carp;

    sub Mouse::Util::throw_error :method {
        my($self, $message, %args) = @_;

        local $Carp::CarpLevel  = $Carp::CarpLevel + 1 + ($args{depth} || 0);
        local $Carp::MaxArgNums = 20; # default is 8, usually we use
named args which gets messier though
        if(exists $args{longmess} && !$args{longmess}) {
            Carp::croak($message);
        }
        else{
            # This is the only change to the upstream subroutine,
which called confess
            Carp::cluck($message);
        }
    }
    }
    package Foo;
    use Mouse;

    has x => (is => "ro", isa => "Int");
    my $foo = Foo->new(x => "blah");
    use Data::Dumper;
    print Dumper $foo;

Which'll give you:

    $ perl -Mblib -Ilib /tmp/error.pl
