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 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).
Nothing is returned.
