NAME

Astro::App::Satpass2::Warner - Output warning and error messages

SYNOPSIS

use Astro::App::Satpass2::Warner

DESCRIPTION

This class is private to the Astro::App::Satpass2 package. The author reserves the right to modify or revoke it without notice. The documentation is purely for the benefit of the author.

This class manages the reporting of error messages, generating them by either warn and c<die>, or carp and croak as the user desires. If the warn attribute is true, you get warn or die. If false, you get carp or croak.

METHODS

This class supports the following public methods:

new

This static method instantiates an Astro::App::Satpass2::Warner object. It takes as arguments name/value pairs which will be passed to the relevant subroutine. It is probably only useful to set warning.

wail

This method concatenates all its arguments, and passes them to die (if the warn attribute is true) or croak (if the warn attribute is false).

warning

If called without an argument, this method returns the value of the warning attribute. If called with an argument, it sets the value of the warning attribute.

The initial value of the attribute is false.

weep

This method concatenates all its arguments, prefixes 'Programming Error - ', and passes them to Carp::confess().

whinge

This method concatenates all its arguments, and passes them to warn (if the warn attribute is true) or carp (if the warn attribute is false).

SUPPORT

Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at http://rt.cpan.org, or in electronic mail to the author.
