Thank you. The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply]

Ways to address this: You can convert to using the builtin feature. `$ perl -E'try { 1/0 } catch ( $e ) { }; say "ok"' # Using 5.40 ok` [download] You can follow add `no feature qw( try );` `$ perl -MTry::Tiny -E'no feature qw( try ); try { 1/0 }; say "ok"' ok` [download] You can use an older version of the "language" (even if you're using the 5.40 interpreter). `$ perl -Mv5.38 -MTry::Tiny -e'try { 1/0 }; say "ok"' ok` [download] (5.10 would suffice for this program.) As you might have noticed, `-E` isn't forward compatible. Your program would have worked with 5.38, but it doesn't with 5.40. If it's not a throwaway program, it's safer to use `-e'use v5.xx; ...'` [download] or `-Mv5.xx -e'...'` [download] instead of `-E'...' # XXX Not forward-compatible.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You could also do this: `perl -MTry::Tiny -E 'Try::Tiny::try { 1 / 0 } Try::Tiny::catch { print $_ };'` which (as expected) generates: `Illegal division by zero at -E line 1.` Hope that helps.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
