 AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check

 Instead of formatting your data yourself, you can also let this module
 do the job by specifying a type and type-specific arguments. You
 can also specify the (fully qualified) name of a package, in which
 case AnyEvent tries to load the package and then expects to find the
