=head1 NAME

Carp::Always - Warns and dies noisily with stack backtraces

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Carp::Always;

Often used on the command line:

  perl -MCarp::Always script.pl

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is meant as a debugging aid. It can be
used to make a script complain loudly with stack backtraces
when warn()ing or die()ing.

Here are how stack backtraces produced by this module
looks:

  # it works for explicit die's and warn's
  $ perl -MCarp::Always -e 'sub f { die "arghh" }; sub g { f }; g'
  arghh at -e line 1
          main::f() called at -e line 1
          main::g() called at -e line 1

  # it works for interpreter-thrown failures
  $ perl -MCarp::Always -w -e 'sub f { $a = shift; @a = @$a };' \
                           -e 'sub g { f(undef) }; g'
  Use of uninitialized value in array dereference at -e line 1
          main::f('undef') called at -e line 2
          main::g() called at -e line 2

In the implementation, the L module does
the heavy work, through C. The
actual implementation sets the signal hooks
L<$SIG{__WARN__}|perlvar/%SIG> and L<$SIG{__DIE__}|perlvar/%SIG> to
emit the stack backtraces.

Also, all uses of C and C are made verbose,
behaving like C and C.

=head1 METHODS

L implements the following methods.

=head2 import

  Carp::Always->import()

Enables L. Also triggered by statements like

  use Carp::Always;
  use Carp::Always 0.14;

but not by

  use Carp::Always ();    # does not invoke import()

=head2 unimport

  Carp::Always->unimport();

Disables L. Also triggered with

  no Carp::Always;

=head1 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This module was born as a reaction to a release
of L by Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni.
Sébastien also has a newer module called
L with the same code and fewer flame
comments on docs. The pruning of the uselessly long
docs of this module was prodded by Michael Schwern.

Schwern and others told me "the module name stinked" -
it was called C. After thinking long
and getting nowhere, I went with nuffin's suggestion
and now it is called C.

=item *

This module does not play well with other modules which fusses
around with C, C, C<$SIG{__WARN__}>, C<$SIG{__DIE__}>.

=item *

Test scripts are good. I should write more of these.
