Sure it works... (Score:1)
... and is all just a question of the API.
No single argument against using $@ is really addressing this important
point. Most alternatives are just eval flavors, which in turn return an
undefined value and set $@, so i don't count those as different.
Others provide new features, come with overhead but solve no new problem.
But in the end we're just talking about different error handling APIs... :-).
and i like the Perl builtin way too
