CPANPLUS::Error - error handling for CPANPLUS
SYNOPSIS
use CPANPLUS::Error qw[cp_msg cp_error];DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONS
cp_msg("message string" [,VERBOSE])
Records a message on the stack, and prints it to STDOUT (or actually $MSG_FH, see the GLOBAL VARIABLES section below), if the VERBOSE option is true. The VERBOSE option defaults to false.
msg()
An alias for cp_msg.
cp_error("error string" [,VERBOSE])
Records an error on the stack, and prints it to STDERR (or actually $ERROR_FH, see the GLOBAL VARIABLES sections below), if the VERBOSE option is true. The VERBOSE options defaults to true.
error()

CLASS METHODS
CPANPLUS::Error->stack()
Retrieves all the items on the stack. Since CPANPLUS::Error is implemented using Log::Message, consult its manpage for the function retrieve to see what is returned and how to use the items.
CPANPLUS::Error->stack_as_string([TRACE])
Returns the whole stack as a printable string. If the TRACE option is true all items are returned with Carp::longmess output, rather than just the message. TRACE defaults to false.
CPANPLUS::Error->flush()
Removes all the items from the stack and returns them. Since CPANPLUS::Error is implemented using Log::Message, consult its manpage for the function retrieve to see what is returned and how to use the items.
