lib:Errno
See the current Perl documentation for lib:Errno.
Here is our local, out-dated (pre-5.6) version:
Errno - System errno constants
use Errno qw(EINTR EIO :POSIX);
Errno
defines and conditionally exports all the error constants defined in your
system errno.h
include file. It has a single export tag, :POSIX
, which will export all
POSIX defined error numbers.
Errno
also makes %!
magic such that each element of %!
has a non-zero value only if $!
is set to that value, eg
use Errno; unless (open(FH, "/fangorn/spouse")) { if ($!{ENOENT}) { warn "Get a wife!\n"; } else { warn "This path is barred: $!"; } }
