+=head1 NAME
+
+carp - warn of errors (from perspective of caller)
+
+cluck - warn of errors with stack backtrace
+ (not exported by default)
+
+croak - die of errors (from perspective of caller)
+
+confess - die of errors with stack backtrace
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Carp;
+ croak "We're outta here!";
+
+ use Carp qw(cluck);
+ cluck "This is how we got here!";
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because
+they act like die() or warn(), but with a message which is more
+likely to be useful to a user of your module. In the case of
+cluck, confess, and longmess that context is a summary of every
+call in the call-stack. For a shorter message you can use C<carp>
+or C<croak> which report the error as being from where your module
+was called. There is no guarantee that that is where the error
+was, but it is a good educated guess.
+
+You can also alter the way the output and logic of C<Carp> works, by
+changing some global variables in the C<Carp> namespace. See the
+section on C<GLOBAL VARIABLES> below.
+
+Here is a more complete description of how C<carp> and C<croak> work.
+What they do is search the call-stack for a function call stack where
+they have not been told that there shouldn't be an error. If every
+call is marked safe, they give up and give a full stack backtrace
+instead. In other words they presume that the first likely looking
+potential suspect is guilty. Their rules for telling whether
+a call shouldn't generate errors work as follows:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item 1.
+
+Any call from a package to itself is safe.
+
+=item 2.
+
+Packages claim that there won't be errors on calls to or from
+packages explicitly marked as safe by inclusion in C<@CARP_NOT>, or
+(if that array is empty) C<@ISA>. The ability to override what
+@ISA says is new in 5.8.
+
+=item 3.
+
+The trust in item 2 is transitive. If A trusts B, and B
+trusts C, then A trusts C. So if you do not override C<@ISA>
+with C<@CARP_NOT>, then this trust relationship is identical to,
+"inherits from".
+
+=item 4.
+
+Any call from an internal Perl module is safe. (Nothing keeps
+user modules from marking themselves as internal to Perl, but
+this practice is discouraged.)
+
+=item 5.
+
+Any call to Perl's warning system (eg Carp itself) is safe.
+(This rule is what keeps it from reporting the error at the
+point where you call C<carp> or C<croak>.)
+
+=item 6.
+
+C<$Carp::CarpLevel> can be set to skip a fixed number of additional
+call levels. Using this is not recommended because it is very
+difficult to get it to behave correctly.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Forcing a Stack Trace
+
+As a debugging aid, you can force Carp to treat a croak as a confess
+and a carp as a cluck across I<all> modules. In other words, force a
+detailed stack trace to be given. This can be very helpful when trying
+to understand why, or from where, a warning or error is being generated.
+
+This feature is enabled by 'importing' the non-existent symbol
+'verbose'. You would typically enable it by saying
+
+ perl -MCarp=verbose script.pl
+
+or by including the string C<-MCarp=verbose> in the PERL5OPT
+environment variable.
+
+Alternately, you can set the global variable C<$Carp::Verbose> to true.
+See the C<GLOBAL VARIABLES> section below.
+
+=head1 GLOBAL VARIABLES
+
+=head2 $Carp::MaxEvalLen
+
+This variable determines how many characters of a string-eval are to
+be shown in the output. Use a value of C<0> to show all text.
+
+Defaults to C<0>.
+
+=head2 $Carp::MaxArgLen
+
+This variable determines how many characters of each argument to a
+function to print. Use a value of C<0> to show the full length of the
+argument.
+
+Defaults to C<64>.
+
+=head2 $Carp::MaxArgNums
+
+This variable determines how many arguments to each function to show.
+Use a value of C<0> to show all arguments to a function call.
+
+Defaults to C<8>.
+
+=head2 $Carp::Verbose
+
+This variable makes C<carp> and C<croak> generate stack backtraces
+just like C<cluck> and C<confess>. This is how C<use Carp 'verbose'>
+is implemented internally.
+
+Defaults to C<0>.
+
+=head2 @CARP_NOT
+
+This variable, I<in your package>, says which packages are I<not> to be
+considered as the location of an error. The C<carp()> and C<cluck()>
+functions will skip over callers when reporting where an error occurred.
+
+NB: This variable must be in the package's symbol table, thus:
+
+ # These work
+ our @CARP_NOT; # file scope
+ use vars qw(@CARP_NOT); # package scope
+ @My::Package::CARP_NOT = ... ; # explicit package variable
+
+ # These don't work
+ sub xyz { ... @CARP_NOT = ... } # w/o declarations above
+ my @CARP_NOT; # even at top-level
+
+Example of use:
+
+ package My::Carping::Package;
+ use Carp;
+ our @CARP_NOT;
+ sub bar { .... or _error('Wrong input') }
+ sub _error {
+ # temporary control of where'ness, __PACKAGE__ is implicit
+ local @CARP_NOT = qw(My::Friendly::Caller);
+ carp(@_)
+ }
+
+This would make C<Carp> report the error as coming from a caller not
+in C<My::Carping::Package>, nor from C<My::Friendly::Caller>.
+
+Also read the L</DESCRIPTION> section above, about how C<Carp> decides
+where the error is reported from.
+
+Use C<@CARP_NOT>, instead of C<$Carp::CarpLevel>.
+
+Overrides C<Carp>'s use of C<@ISA>.
+
+=head2 %Carp::Internal
+
+This says what packages are internal to Perl. C<Carp> will never
+report an error as being from a line in a package that is internal to
+Perl. For example:
+
+ $Carp::Internal{ (__PACKAGE__) }++;
+ # time passes...
+ sub foo { ... or confess("whatever") };
+
+would give a full stack backtrace starting from the first caller
+outside of __PACKAGE__. (Unless that package was also internal to
+Perl.)
+
+=head2 %Carp::CarpInternal
+
+This says which packages are internal to Perl's warning system. For
+generating a full stack backtrace this is the same as being internal
+to Perl, the stack backtrace will not start inside packages that are
+listed in C<%Carp::CarpInternal>. But it is slightly different for
+the summary message generated by C<carp> or C<croak>. There errors
+will not be reported on any lines that are calling packages in
+C<%Carp::CarpInternal>.
+
+For example C<Carp> itself is listed in C<%Carp::CarpInternal>.
+Therefore the full stack backtrace from C<confess> will not start
+inside of C<Carp>, and the short message from calling C<croak> is
+not placed on the line where C<croak> was called.
+
+=head2 $Carp::CarpLevel
+
+This variable determines how many additional call frames are to be
+skipped that would not otherwise be when reporting where an error
+occurred on a call to one of C<Carp>'s functions. It is fairly easy
+to count these call frames on calls that generate a full stack
+backtrace. However it is much harder to do this accounting for calls
+that generate a short message. Usually people skip too many call
+frames. If they are lucky they skip enough that C<Carp> goes all of
+the way through the call stack, realizes that something is wrong, and
+then generates a full stack backtrace. If they are unlucky then the
+error is reported from somewhere misleading very high in the call
+stack.
+
+Therefore it is best to avoid C<$Carp::CarpLevel>. Instead use
+C<@CARP_NOT>, C<%Carp::Internal> and C<%Carp::CarpInternal>.
+
+Defaults to C<0>.
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+The Carp routines don't handle exception objects currently.
+If called with a first argument that is a reference, they simply
+call die() or warn(), as appropriate.
+
