Re: Error Reporting from Module

in reply to Error Reporting from Module

It's probably all wrong and may not be exactly what you want, but having wanted something similar, I discovered this (Google _is_ your friend) ...

use warnings FATAL => 'all';
[download]

Just my 10 penn'orth...

A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))

warnings' `FATAL` has lexical scope, so unless the module provides a custom `sub import` that allows the person `use`ing the module to turn them on, the `use`r of the module can't do so. And they also don't fatalize warn statements. `$ perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings=FATAL,all -le 'warn "Hello";my $x=1+"";prin +t $x' Hello at -e line 1. Argument "" isn't numeric in addition (+) at -e line 1.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
