Re: Lines in error messages

Can I override __DIE__ or warn and if so, how?
What's that mean?

I'm guessing you wanna read sigtrap and perlvar.

You also might wanna check out Carp. When I'm doing any "debugging", i just use warn (or carp), cause it already prints the line number.

Hehe, I actually poked around perlvar a little bit, but by over-riding __DIE__ I was referring to this node. I will definately finish looking through perlvar. Carp sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. I didn't realize Carp printed the line number automatically, so it should work almost exactly like what I was looking for. thanks -- Ben "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will depart."
