Making warnings trigger errors.

[Tyler Bird <bi...@epromo.com>]

Does anybody know if there is a module

or some kind of directive in either perl or mod_perl
to make warnings produce the same affects as errors.

Thanks

Tyler

I used this before to find out where a warning was coming from that I
just could track down. Easy to find if it dies.

Or to do it lexically:

   use warnings FATAL => 'all';

Just change the signal handler.

$SIG{__WARN__} = $SIG{__DIE__};

Not sure why you'd want that though. But sometimes I need some help in tracking
down warnings, so I do something like this:

use Carp;
$SIG{__WARN__} = \&Carp::cluck;
