NAME
Errno - System errno constants
SYNOPSIS
use Errno qw(EINTR EIO :POSIX);
DESCRIPTION
"Errno" defines and conditionally exports all the error constants
defined in your system "errno.h" include file. It has a single export
tag, ":POSIX", which will export all POSIX defined error numbers.
"Errno" also makes "%!" magic such that each element of "%!" has a non-
zero value only if $! is set to that value. For example:
use Errno;
unless (open(FH, "/fangorn/spouse")) {
if ($!{ENOENT}) {
warn "Get a wife!\n";
} else {
warn "This path is barred: $!";
}
}
If a specified constant "EFOO" does not exist on the system, $!{EFOO}
returns "". You may use "exists $!{EFOO}" to check whether the con-
stant is available on the system.
CAVEATS
Importing a particular constant may not be very portable, because the
import will fail on platforms that do not have that constant. A more
portable way to set $! to a valid value is to use:
if (exists &Errno::EFOO) {
$! = &Errno::EFOO;
}
