NAME
|
|
|
|
Carp - alternative warn and die for modules
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because they act like
|
|
die() or warn(), but with a message which is more likely to be useful
|
|
to a user of your module. In the case of cluck, confess, and longmess
|
|
that context is a summary of every call in the call-stack. For a shorter
|
|
message you can use carp or croak which report the error as being from
|
|
where your module was called. There is no guarantee that that is where
|
|
the error was, but it is a good educated guess.
|
|
|
|
You can also alter the way the output and logic of Carp works, by changing
|
|
some global variables in the Carp namespace.

AUTHOR
|
|
|
|
The Carp module first appeared in Larry Wall's perl 5.000 distribution.
|
|
Since then it has been modified by several of the perl 5 porters.
|
|
Andrew Main (Zefram) <zefram@fysh.org> divested Carp into an independent
|
|
distribution.
