=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
carp - warn of errors (from perspective of caller)
|
|
|
|
cluck - warn of errors with stack backtrace
|
|
(not exported by default)
|
|
|
|
croak - die of errors (from perspective of caller)
|
|
|
|
confess - die of errors with stack backtrace
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
use Carp;
|
|
croak "We're outta here!";
|
|
|
|
use Carp qw(cluck);
|
|
cluck "This is how we got here!";
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because
|
|
they act like die() or warn(), but report where the error
|
|
was in the code they were called from. Thus if you have a
|
|
routine Foo() that has a carp() in it, then the carp()
|
|
will report the error as occurring where Foo() was called,
|
|
not where carp() was called.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Forcing a Stack Trace
|
|
|
|
As a debugging aid, you can force Carp to treat a croak as a confess
|
|
and a carp as a cluck across I<all> modules. In other words, force a
|
|
detailed stack trace to be given. This can be very helpful when trying
|
|
to understand why, or from where, a warning or error is being generated.
|
|
|
|
This feature is enabled by 'importing' the non-existent symbol
|
|
'verbose'. You would typically enable it by saying
|
|
|
|
perl -MCarp=verbose script.pl
|
|
|
|
or by including the string C<MCarp=verbose> in the L<PERL5OPT>
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
|
|
=head1 BUGS
|
|
|
|
The Carp routines don't handle exception objects currently.
|
|
If called with a first argument that is a reference, they simply
|
|
call die() or warn(), as appropriate.
