Re: Bad Module Code

[dragonchild]

I do that all the time. I have a wrapper around IO::File that provides a few more option (like when to check for existence and the like), plus throws errors for Error. The closing function doesn't actually return anything.

Personally, though, I'm anal and always return 1 from functions that are auto-successful. But, that's more from superstition than any real reason.

Don't go borrowing trouble. For programmers, this means Worry only about what you need to implement.

Please remember that I'm crufty and crochety. All opinions are purely mine and all code is untested, unless otherwise specified.
