That value should be checked to ensure that the close was successful. my $error = close $filehandle; # ok close $filehandle or die "unable to close: $!"; # ok close $filehandle; # not ok use autodie qw< :io >; close $filehandle; # ok You can use L, L, or L to get around this. Currently, L is not properly treated as a pragma; its lexical effects aren't taken into account. =head1 CONFIGURATION If you create a module that exports C you can tell this policy about it with the C setting: [InputOutput::RequireCheckedSyscalls] autodie_modules = My::Thing =head1 AUTHOR Andrew Moore =head1 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This policy module is based heavily on policies written by Jeffrey Ryan Thalhammer . =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2007-2011 Andrew Moore.
