| alester | autocheck dies on an error. but you want to retry. |
| hueblur | Isn't that good? if it dies, it throws an exception, yeah? I just put it in a try block? |
| Randal | "try"? |
| alester | no, you don't want to put it in a try block. |
| Randal | is this java? :) |
| alester | you want to check the return code |
| hueblur | @_@ |
| Randal | "eval, or eval not. there is no 'try'" |
| hueblur | So - I check it... for what? 404? hrmmm. 404... |
| alester | or anything non-200 |
| hueblur | do you have a subroutine? |
| Randal | you check it for the expected error. what error do you expect? keep in mind that error codes are for problems with the HTTP itself you might still get a 200 code on an "error" page because it would mean that you were successfully delivered an error report. :) |
| falesca | hi, is anybody using perl on pocketpc? |
| Randal | I use perl on a laptop it's too big to fit in my pocket :) |
| falesca | :) |
| Randal | Oh wait, I have a huge pocket that would hold it www.scottevest.com - see the large coats with the giant pocket in the back I have a few of those. :) |
| Chris62vw | falesca, no; never thought about it. I have a cingular 8525 that runs ms mobile 5 (I think) no real need if I need perl I just use pocket-PuTTY and ssh to a server and perl from there :-) |
| falesca | I see, but I really want to program perl on the tube :) and i have wm 5 in fact and a small pocket jacket with a small pocket pc |
| Chris62vw | well, does a pocketpc version exist? I never looked |
| falesca | there is a perlce version, quite updated perlce.sourceforge.net |
| Chris62vw | I'll install it, hell, why not |
| falesca | but i'm receiveng some dodgy messages from my pocket pc about signed certificates |
