Like the +other pragmata, it affects the compilation phase of your program rather +than merely the execution phase. + +To use in your program as a pragma, merely invoke + + use diagnostics; + +at the start (or near the start) of your program. (Note +that this I<does> enable perl's B<-w> flag.) Your whole +compilation will then be subject(ed :-) to the enhanced diagnostics. +These still go out B<STDERR>. + +Due to the interaction between runtime and compiletime issues, +and because it's probably not a very good idea anyway, +you may not use C<no diagnostics> to turn them off at compiletime. +However, you may control there behaviour at runtime using the +disable() and enable() methods to turn them off and on respectively. + +The B<-verbose> flag first prints out the L<perldiag> introduction before +any other diagnostics. The $diagnostics::PRETTY variable can generate nicer +escape sequences for pagers. + +=head2 The I<splain> Program + +While apparently a whole nuther program, I<splain> is actually nothing +more than a link to the (executable) F<diagnostics.pm> module, as well as +a link to the F<diagnostics.pod> documentation. The B<-v> flag is like +the C<use diagnostics -verbose> directive. +The B<-p> flag is like the +$diagnostics::PRETTY variable. Since you're post-processing with +I<splain>, there's no sense in being able to enable() or disable() processing. + +Output from I<splain> is directed to B<STDOUT>, unlike the pragma. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +The following file is certain to trigger a few errors at both +runtime and compiletime: + + use diagnostics; + print NOWHERE "nothing\n"; + print STDERR "\n\tThis message should be unadorned.\n"; + warn "\tThis is a user warning"; + print "\nDIAGNOSTIC TESTER: Please enter a <CR> here: "; + my $a, $b = scalar <STDIN>; + print "\n"; + print $x/$y; + +If you prefer to run your program first and look at its problem +afterwards, do this: + + perl -w test.pl 2>test.out + ./splain < test.out + +Note that this is not in general possible in shells of more dubious heritage, +as the theoretical + + (perl -w test.pl >/dev/tty) >& test.out + ./splain < test.out + +Because you just moved the existing B<stdout> to somewhere else. + +If you don't want to modify your source code, but still have on-the-fly +warnings, do this: + + exec 3>&1; perl -w test.pl 2>&1 1>&3 3>&- | splain 1>&2 3>&- + +Nifty, eh? + +If you want to control warnings on the fly, do something like this. +Make sure you do the C<use> first, or you won't be able to get +at the enable() or disable() methods. + + use diagnostics; # checks entire compilation phase + print "\ntime for 1st bogus diags: SQUAWKINGS\n"; + print BOGUS1 'nada'; + print "done with 1st bogus\n"; + + disable diagnostics; # only turns off runtime warnings + print "\ntime for 2nd bogus: (squelched)\n"; + print BOGUS2 'nada'; + print "done with 2nd bogus\n"; + + enable diagnostics; # turns back on runtime warnings + print "\ntime for 3rd bogus: SQUAWKINGS\n"; + print BOGUS3 'nada'; + print "done with 3rd bogus\n"; + + disable diagnostics; + print "\ntime for 4th bogus: (squelched)\n"; + print BOGUS4 'nada'; + print "done with 4th bogus\n"; + +=head1 INTERNALS + +Diagnostic messages derive from the F<perldiag.pod> file when available at +runtime. Otherwise, they may be embedded in the file itself when the +splain package is built. See the F<Makefile> for details. + +If an extant $SIG{__WARN__} handler is discovered, it will continue +to be honored, but only after the diagnostics::splainthis() function +(the module's $SIG{__WARN__} interceptor) has had its way with your +warnings. + +There is a $diagnostics::DEBUG variable you may set if you're desperately +curious what sorts of things are being intercepted. + + BEGIN { $diagnostics::DEBUG = 1 } + + +=head1 BUGS + +Not being able to say "no diagnostics" is annoying, but may not be +insurmountable. + +The C<-pretty> directive is called too late to affect matters. +You have to do this instead, and I<before> you load the module. + + BEGIN { $diagnostics::PRETTY = 1 } + +I could start up faster by delaying compilation until it should be +needed, but this gets a "panic: top_level" when using the pragma form +in Perl 5.001e. + +While it's true that this documentation is somewhat subserious, if you use +a program named I<splain>, you should expect a bit of whimsy. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Tom Christiansen <F<tchrist@mox.perl.com>>, 25 June 1995. + +=cut + +require 5.001; +use Carp; + +use Config; +($privlib, $archlib) = @Config{qw(privlibexp archlibexp)}; +if ($^O eq 'VMS') { + require VMS::Filespec; + $privlib = VMS::Filespec::unixify($privlib); + $archlib = VMS::Filespec::unixify($archlib); +} +@trypod = ("$archlib/pod/perldiag.pod", + "$privlib/pod/perldiag-$].pod", + "$privlib/pod/perldiag.pod"); +# handy for development testing of new warnings etc +unshift @trypod, "./pod/perldiag.pod" if -e "pod/perldiag.pod"; +($PODFILE) = ((grep { -e } @trypod), $trypod[$#trypod])[0]; + +$DEBUG ||= 0; +my $WHOAMI = ref bless []; # nobody's business, prolly not even mine + +$| = 1; + +local $_; + +CONFIG: { + $opt_p = $opt_d = $opt_v = $opt_f = ''; + %HTML_2_Troff = %HTML_2_Latin_1 = %HTML_2_ASCII_7 = (); + %exact_duplicate = (); + + unless (caller) { + $standalone++; + require Getopt::Std; + Getopt::Std::getopts('pdvf:') + or die "Usage: $0 [-v] [-p] [-f splainpod]"; + $PODFILE = $opt_f if $opt_f; + $DEBUG = 2 if $opt_d; + $VERBOSE = $opt_v; + $PRETTY = $opt_p; + } + + if (open(POD_DIAG, $PODFILE)) { + warn "Happy happy podfile from real $PODFILE\n" if $DEBUG; + last CONFIG; + } + + if (caller) { + INCPATH: { + for $file ( (map { "$_/$WHOAMI.pm" } @INC), $0) { + warn "Checking $file\n" if $DEBUG; + if (open(POD_DIAG, $file)) { + while (<POD_DIAG>) { + next unless /^__END__\s*# wish diag dbase were more accessible/; + print STDERR "podfile is $file\n" if $DEBUG; + last INCPATH; + } + } + } + } + } else { + print STDERR "podfile is <DATA>\n" if $DEBUG; + *POD_DIAG = *main::DATA; + } +} +if (eof(POD_DIAG)) { + die "couldn't find diagnostic data in $PODFILE @INC $0"; +} + + +%HTML_2_Troff = ( + 'amp' => '&', # ampersand + 'lt' => '<', # left chevron, less-than + 'gt' => '>', # right chevron, greater-than + 'quot' => '"', # double quote + + "Aacute" => "A\\*'", # capital A, acute accent + # etc + +); + +%HTML_2_Latin_1 = ( + 'amp' => '&', # ampersand + 'lt' => '<', # left chevron, less-than + 'gt' => '>', # right chevron, greater-than + 'quot' => '"', # double quote + + "Aacute" => "\xC1" # capital A, acute accent + + # etc +); + +%HTML_2_ASCII_7 = ( + 'amp' => '&', # ampersand + 'lt' => '<', # left chevron, less-than + 'gt' => '>', # right chevron, greater-than + 'quot' => '"', # double quote + + "Aacute" => "A" # capital A, acute accent + # etc +); + +*HTML_Escapes = do { + if ($standalone) { + $PRETTY ?
