Hello All,

Can any one please explain me what are these panic error message. When will they be generated.

1. Is it generated due to system level error
2. Or is it generated due to user level coding.

regards
Nischitha

will they be generated.

Panic error messages are usually triggered by Perl core code. I have
seen them when some piece of the interpreter (like the parser)
produced an inconsistent state which the next piece (for example, the
optimizer) can't handle. So it panics, instead of going further - and
possibly generate a SEGV. I think the general rule is that Perl should
not panic, but it does sometimes. Some panic errors are guards that
were coded to avoid issues that caused SEGV, but which were not
resolved yet. I think you may direct samples that caused panic to the
perl5-porters where you may learn this is a known issue, when it is
expected to be fixed, which are the workarounds or where this will be
appropriately filed and enter the queue to be fixed when someone got
the tuits to do it.
