note adrianh <p>There are problems when you mix the signal handling style with other modules that use exception handling, or use it in persistent environments like mod_perl so (in my opinion) it is best avoided.</p> <p>[http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/perl_reference/perl_reference.html#Alternative_Exception_Handling_Techniques|Alternative Exception Handling Techniques] in the mod_perl guide has more info on this. Also see the documentation on <code>$^S</code> (in [perldoc://perlvar]) and [perldoc://die].</p> </p> <p>It's often simpler just to override <code>CORE::GLOBAL::die</code> and <code>CORE::GLOBAL::warn</code>.</p> 230799 273381
