APR::Status - Perl Interface to the APR_STATUS_IS_* macros
use APR::Status (); eval { $obj->mp_method() }; if ($@ && $ref $@ eq 'APR::Error' && APR::Status::is_EAGAIN($@)) { # APR_STATUS_IS_EAGAIN(s) of apr_errno.h is satisfied }
An interface to apr_errno.h composite error codes.
As discussed in the APR::Error|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error
manpage, it is possible to handle APR/Apache/mod_perl exceptions in
the following way:
eval { $obj->mp_method() }; if ($@ && $ref $@ eq 'APR::Error' && $@ == $some_code) warn "handled exception: $@"; }
However, in cases where $some_code
is an APR::Const constant, there may be more than one
condition satisfying the intent of this exception. For this purpose
the APR C library provides in apr_errno.h a series of macros,
APR_STATUS_IS_*
, which are the recommended way to check for such
conditions. For example, the APR_STATUS_IS_EAGAIN
macro is defined
as
#define APR_STATUS_IS_EAGAIN(s) ((s) == APR_EAGAIN \ || (s) == APR_OS_START_SYSERR + ERROR_NO_DATA \ || (s) == APR_OS_START_SYSERR + SOCEWOULDBLOCK \ || (s) == APR_OS_START_SYSERR + ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION)
The purpose of APR::Status
is to provide functions corresponding
to these macros.
is_EACCES
Check if the error is matching EACCES
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_EACCES
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_EACCES($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
An example of using is_EACCES
is when reading the contents of a
file where access may be forbidden:
eval { $obj->slurp_filename(0) }; if ($@) { return Apache2::Const::FORBIDDEN if ref $@ eq 'APR::Error' && APR::Status::is_EACCES($@); die $@; }
Due to possible variants in conditions matching EACCES
,
the use of this function is recommended for checking error codes
against this value, rather than just using
APR::Const::EACCES|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__EACCES_
directly.
is_EAGAIN
Check if the error is matching EAGAIN
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_EAGAIN
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_EAGAIN($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
For example, here is how you may want to handle socket read exceptions and do retries:
use APR::Status (); # .... my $tries = 0; my $buffer; RETRY: my $rlen = eval { $socket->recv($buffer, SIZE) }; if ($@ && ref($@) && APR::Status::is_EAGAIN($@)) { if ($tries++ < 3) { goto RETRY; } else { # do something else } } else { die "eval block has failed: $@"; }
Notice that just checking against
APR::Const::EAGAIN|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__EAGAIN_
may work on some Unices, but then it will certainly break on
win32. Thefore make sure to use this macro and not
APR::Const::EAGAIN
unless you know what you are doing.
is_ENOENT
Check if the error is matching ENOENT
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_ENOENT
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_ENOENT($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
An example of using is_ENOENT
is when reading the contents of a
file which may not exist:
eval { $obj->slurp_filename(0) }; if ($@) { return Apache2::Const::NOT_FOUND if ref $@ eq 'APR::Error' && APR::Status::is_ENOENT($@); die $@; }
Due to possible variants in conditions matching ENOENT
,
the use of this function is recommended for checking error codes
against this value, rather than just using
APR::Const::ENOENT|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__ENOENT_
directly.
is_EOF
Check if the error is matching EOF
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_EOF
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_EOF($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
Due to possible variants in conditions matching EOF
,
the use of this function is recommended for checking error codes
against this value, rather than just using
APR::Const::EOF|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__EOF_
directly.
is_ECONNABORTED
Check if the error is matching ECONNABORTED
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_ECONNABORTED
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_ECONNABORTED($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
Due to possible variants in conditions matching ECONNABORTED
,
the use of this function is recommended for checking error codes
against this value, rather than just using
APR::Const::ECONNABORTED|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__ECONNABORTED_
directly.
is_ECONNRESET
Check if the error is matching ECONNRESET
and its variants
(corresponds to the APR_STATUS_IS_ECONNRESET
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_ECONNRESET($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
.
$status
( boolean )
Due to possible variants in conditions matching ECONNRESET
, the use
of this function is recommended for checking error codes against this
value, rather than just using
APR::Const::ECONNRESET|docs::2.0::api::APR::Const/C_APR__Const__ECONNRESET_
directly.
is_TIMEUP
Check if the error is matching TIMEUP
and its variants (corresponds
to the APR_STATUS_IS_TIMEUP
macro).
$status = APR::Status::is_TIMEUP($error_code);
$error_code
(integer or APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>
)
The error code or to check, normally $@
blessed into APR::Error
object|docs::2.0::api::APR::Error>

$status
( boolean )
Due to possible variants in conditions matching TIMEUP
