=head1 NAME
Fatal - replace functions with equivalents which succeed or die
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Fatal qw(open close);
sub juggle { . . . }
import Fatal 'juggle';
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<Fatal> provides a way to conveniently replace functions which normally
return a false value when they fail with equivalents which raise exceptions
if they are not successful. This lets you use these functions without
having to test their return values explicitly on each call. Exceptions
can be caught using C<eval{}>. See L<perlfunc> and L<perlvar> for details.
The do-or-die equivalents are set up simply by calling Fatal's
C<import> routine, passing it the names of the functions to be
replaced. You may wrap both user-defined functions and overridable
CORE operators (except C<exec>, C<system> which cannot be expressed
via prototypes) in this way.
If the symbol C<:void> appears in the import list, then functions
named later in that import list raise an exception only when
these are called in void context--that is, when their return
values are ignored. For example
use Fatal qw/:void open close/;
# properly checked, so no exception raised on error
if(open(FH, "< /bogotic") {
warn "bogo file, dude: $!";
}
# not checked, so error raises an exception
close FH;
=head1 BUGS
You should not fatalize functions that are called in list context, because this
module tests whether a function has failed by testing the boolean truth of its
return value in scalar context.
