1253 =head1 BEST PRACTICE
1255 B<Fatal has been obsoleted by the new L<autodie> pragma.> Please use
1256 L<autodie> in preference to C<Fatal>. L<autodie> supports lexical scoping,
1257 throws real exception objects, and provides much nicer error messages.
1259 The use of C<:void> with Fatal is discouraged.
1263 C<Fatal> provides a way to conveniently replace
1264 functions which normally return a false value when they fail with
1265 equivalents which raise exceptions if they are not successful. This
1266 lets you use these functions without having to test their return
1267 values explicitly on each call. Exceptions can be caught using
1268 C<eval{}>. See L<perlfunc> and L<perlvar> for details.
1270 The do-or-die equivalents are set up simply by calling Fatal's
1271 C<import> routine, passing it the names of the functions to be
1272 replaced. You may wrap both user-defined functions and overridable
1273 CORE operators (except C<exec>, C<system>, C<print>, or any other
1274 built-in that cannot be expressed via prototypes) in this way.
1276 If the symbol C<:void> appears in the import list, then functions
1277 named later in that import list raise an exception only when
1278 these are called in void context--that is, when their return
1279 values are ignored. For example
1281 use Fatal qw/:void open close/;
1283 # properly checked, so no exception raised on error
1284 if (not open(my $fh, '<', '/bogotic') {
1285 warn "Can't open /bogotic: $!";
1288 # not checked, so error raises an exception
1291 The use of C<:void> is discouraged, as it can result in exceptions
1292 not being thrown if you I<accidentally> call a method without
1293 void context. Use L<autodie> instead if you need to be able to
1294 disable autodying/Fatal behaviour for a small block of code.
1300 =item Bad subroutine name for Fatal: %s
1302 You've called C<Fatal> with an argument that doesn't look like
1303 a subroutine name, nor a switch that this version of Fatal
1306 =item %s is not a Perl subroutine
1308 You've asked C<Fatal> to try and replace a subroutine which does not
1309 exist, or has not yet been defined.
1311 =item %s is neither a builtin, nor a Perl subroutine
1313 You've asked C<Fatal> to replace a subroutine, but it's not a Perl
1314 built-in, and C<Fatal> couldn't find it as a regular subroutine.
1315 It either doesn't exist or has not yet been defined.
1317 =item Cannot make the non-overridable %s fatal
1319 You've tried to use C<Fatal> on a Perl built-in that can't be
1320 overridden, such as C<print> or C<system>, which means that
1321 C<Fatal> can't help you, although some other modules might.
1322 See the L</"SEE ALSO"> section of this documentation.
1324 =item Internal error: %s
1326 You've found a bug in C<Fatal>. Please report it using
1327 the C<perlbug> command.
1333 C<Fatal> clobbers the context in which a function is called and always
1334 makes it a scalar context, except when the C<:void> tag is used.
1335 This problem does not exist in L<autodie>.
1337 "Used only once" warnings can be generated when C<autodie> or C<Fatal>
1338 is used with package filehandles (eg, C<FILE>). It's strongly recommended
1339 you use scalar filehandles instead.
