Catch and log warnings

examples/advanced-perl/catch_warnings.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

local $SIG{__WARN__} = sub {
    my $message = shift;
    logger('warning', $message);
};

my $total;
add();
print "$total\n";

sub add {
    $total = $total + rand();
}

# Use of uninitialized value in addition (+)

sub logger {
    my ($level, $msg) = @_;
    if (open my $out, '>>', 'log.txt') {
        chomp $msg;
        print $out "$level - $msg\n";
    }
}

%SIG holds all the signals perl can deal with with the two special signal handles __WARN__ and __DIE__ sub {} is an anonymous subroutine we will discuss later

examples/advanced-perl/catch_multiple_warnings.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

my %WARNS;
local $SIG{__WARN__} = sub {
    my $message = shift;
    return if $WARNS{$message}++;
    logger('warning', $message);
}

my $counter;
count();
print "$counter\n";
$counter = undef;
count();

sub count {
    $counter = $counter + 42;
}
