NAME

NYI - Provide shortcut to X::NYI

SYNOPSIS

use NYI;

multi sub frobnicate("insert", |) { NYI "insert a frob" }

DESCRIPTION

Provide a shortcut to doing:

Failure.new: X::NYI.new: feature => "feature";

This can be used as a return value in a subroutine or method:

multi method frobnicate("insert", |) { NYI "insert a frob" }

Or to fail or throw immediately:

fail NYI("insert a frob");

NYI("insert a frob").throw;

Reasons for using this subroutine are:

• reduce bytecode size of hot code paths

• better readability because of less noise

Should the core of the Raku Programming Language already provide a NYI subroutine, then this module will become a no-op.
