Using Thrift with Perl
=====================

Thrift requires Perl >= 5.6.0

Unexpected exceptions in a service handler are converted to
TApplicationException with type INTERNAL ERROR and the string
of the exception is delivered as the message.

On the client side, exceptions are thrown with die, so be sure
to wrap eval{} statments around any code that contains exceptions.

Please see tutoral and test dirs for examples.
