I wrote the below code trying to redirect all STDERR output to a function which can then handle it accordingly. When I try to print the error in the function it get redirected to its printing the error 2x's, specifically 1x on 2 separate lines..... Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or why this happens? I have ActivePerl and installed the IO-Stringy package. 
use strict;
use Tie::STDERR \&HandleError;

print "Before\n";
die ".....";
print "After\n";

sub HandleError(){ 
    my ($error) = @_;
    &SomeActivity('0',$error);
}

sub SomeActivity(){
    my ($rc, $error) = @_;
    print $rc . "\n" . $error; 
}
