NAME
Test::Stream::Util - Tools used by Test::Stream and friends.
EXPERIMENTAL CODE WARNING
This is an experimental release! Test-Stream, and all its components are still in an experimental phase. This dist has been released to cpan in order to allow testers and early adopters the chance to write experimental new tools with it, or to add experimental support for it into old tools.
PLEASE DO NOT COMPLETELY CONVERT OLD TOOLS YET. This experimental release is very likely to see a lot of code churn. API's may break at any time. Test-Stream should NOT be depended on by any toolchain level tools until the experimental phase is over.
DESCRIPTION
Collection of tools used by Test::Stream and friends.
EXPORTS
All exports are optional, you must specify subs to import. If you want to import everything use '-all'.
use Test::Stream::Util '-all';
- ($success, $error) = try { ... }
-
Eval the codeblock, return success or failure, and the error message. This code protects $@ and $!, they will be restored by the end of the run. This code also temporarily blocks $SIG{DIE} handlers.
- protect { ... }
-
Similar to try, except that it does not catch exceptions. The idea here is to protect $@ and $! from changes. $@ and $! will be restored to whatever they were before the run so long as it is successful. If the run fails $! will still be restored, but $@ will contain the exception being thrown.
- USE_THREADS
-
Returns true if threads are enabled, false if they are not.
- get_tid
-
This will return the id of the current thread when threads are enabled, otherwise it returns 0.
