140 =head1 NAME
141
142 Fatal - replace functions with equivalents which succeed or die
143
144 =head1 SYNOPSIS
145
146 use Fatal qw(open close);
147
148 sub juggle { . . . }
149 import Fatal 'juggle';
150
151 =head1 DESCRIPTION
152
153 C<Fatal> provides a way to conveniently replace functions which normally
154 return a false value when they fail with equivalents which raise exceptions
155 if they are not successful. This lets you use these functions without
156 having to test their return values explicitly on each call. Exceptions
157 can be caught using C<eval{}>. See L<perlfunc> and L<perlvar> for details.
158
159 The do-or-die equivalents are set up simply by calling Fatal's
160 C<import> routine, passing it the names of the functions to be
161 replaced. You may wrap both user-defined functions and overridable
162 CORE operators (except C<exec>, C<system> which cannot be expressed
163 via prototypes) in this way.
164
165 If the symbol C<:void> appears in the import list, then functions
166 named later in that import list raise an exception only when
167 these are called in void context--that is, when their return
168 values are ignored. For example
169
170 use Fatal qw/:void open close/;
171
172 # properly checked, so no exception raised on error
173 if(open(FH, "< /bogotic") {
174 warn "bogo file, dude: $!";
175 }
176
177 # not checked, so error raises an exception
178 close FH;
