perl -MCarp -e '$SIG{__WARN__} = sub { $err = shift; }; carp "Error!\n"; print "We caught $err";'
This works great!
And changing $SIG{__WARN__} to '' will return default behaviour correct?
(Same thign with __DIE__ ??)
Just undef them:
undef $SIG{__WARN__};
Strangely though, this did not work for me, though I expected it to:
perl -MCarp -e '$SIG{__DIE__} = sub { $err = shift; }; croak "Error!\n"; print "We caught $err";'
Anyone have any idea how to get $SIG{__DIE__} to act like the $SIG{__WARN__} ?
I'm sure it has something to do with die doing an exit() or soemthing.
This was my misunderstanding. I looked back over the __DIE__ handler. It gets called on the way down, it doesn't override the fact that you are going down. My bad. Use __WARN__.
