devel/p5-autodie 2.29 DragonFly

The autodie pragma provides a convenient way to replace functions that normally return false on failure with equivalents that throw an exception on failure.

The autodie pragma has lexical scope, meaning that functions and subroutines altered with autodie will only change their behaviour until the end of the enclosing block, file, or eval.

If system is specified as an argument to autodie, then it uses IPC::System::Simple to do the heavy lifting. See the description of that module for more information.
