I wish I had aliases for these functions such as: 
warn1
warnfull
die1
diefull

for dying with 1-level or full backtrace. The names croak, confess, carp, and cluck have no rhyme or reason - just alliteration :)



The mantra of every experienced web application developer is the same: thou shalt separate business logic from display. Ironically, almost all template engines allow violation of this separation principle, which is the very impetus for HTML template engine development.

    package Carpy; 

use strict;
use warnings;

use Carp (); 

sub import {
    my $caller = caller;
    no strict 'refs';
    *{$caller . "::warn1"} = \&{"Carp::carp"};
    *{$caller . "::warnfull"} = \&{"Carp::cluck"};
    *{$caller . "::die1"} = \&{"Carp::croak"};
    *{$caller . "::diefull"} = \&{"Carp::confess"};
}

    You know what, metaperl? I think you rock, and I am so glad you're here. I'm glad you've stuck around all these years. You've taken a lot of crap, from time to time, and you always just let it roll off your back, with utmost grace. You are an exemplary monk.

    Carry on. :-)

    I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.

    Or, consider using Carp::Always. Now all your die()'s and warn()'s produce backtraces. The Carp concept is kinda silly anyway, methinks.

      Could you elaborate about the silliness part?

    Stop carping, willya? Or would we say that you are clucking? ;-)
