Hi Monks the code below works perfectly use strict;
my $errorName="alarm\n";
my $time=5;
eval {
local $SIG{ALRM} = sub { die "$errorName" };
alarm $time;
sleep(10);
};
my $error= $@;
Off($error,$errorName);
sub Off{
my $error=$_[0];
my $errorName=$_[1];
if( $error && $error eq "$errorName")
{
warn "Timed out!!!\n";
exit ;
}
else
{
alarm 0;
print " you can continue";
}
}
But when I make it to subroutines as this use strict;
my $errorName="alarm\n";
my $time=5;
eval {
On($time,$errorName);
#dostuff();
sleep(10);
};
my $error= $@;
print "error ".$error."error \n";
Off($error,$errorName);
sub On
{
my $time=$_[0];
my $errorName=$_[1];
local $SIG{ALRM} = sub { die "$errorName" };
alarm $time;
}
sub Off
{
my $error=$_[0];
my $errorName=$_[1];
if( $error && $error eq "$errorName")
{
warn "Timed out!!!\n";
exit ;
}
else
{
alarm 0;
print " you can continue";
}
}
It does not work as expected instead of throwing the warning message it throws "Terminating on signal SIGALRM(14)" Need your help Monks.Thank you in advance
