Re^3: Just before subroutine returns

    If you need to know which return returned, you might be able to wrap return using Keyword::Declare or Filter::Simple.

    Be warned: These are very powerful, therefore dangerous to use.

      I'd recommend Keyword::Simple , but for completeness: a sub can be left without return.

      Possibilities include:

      • implicit return at body's end
      • goto label in caller chain
      • goto &sub
      • die exception

        This is true, of course. So, would still need something like End to catch those cases. (Though the implicit return at the body's end could be "hand modified".)
