I'll follow you suggestions after I post this.

I am modifying "standard" configuration file to make sense of WiFi errors I am getting.

I am not too concerned if the file is perfect, I just need to make my modifications for now.



Would it be feasible to implement something like this - in pseudocode ?
...
esac || if debug

print error code

else
just print the original message



When I gain some more experience I would like to make the "|| command " as a function passing the error number (?) and the variable message to it.



Thanks

AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::MUC(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::MUC(3pm)

NAME
AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::MUC - MUC error Subclass of AnyEvent::XMPP::Error METHODS type This method returns either: join_timeout If the joining of the room took too long. no_config_form If the room we requested the configuration from didn't provide a data form. subject_change_forbidden If changing the subject of a room is not allowed. message_error If this is an unidentified message error. If we got a presence error the method "presence_error" returns a AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::Presence object with further details. However, this class tries to provide a mapping for you (the developer) to ease the load of figuring out which error means what. To make identification of the errors with XEP-0045 more clear I included the error codes and condition names. Here are the more descriptive types: password_required Entering a room Inform user that a password is required. (Condition: not-authorized, Code: 401) banned Entering a room Inform user that he or she is banned from the room (Condition: forbidden, Code: 403) room_locked Entering a room Inform user that the room does not exist and someone is currently creating it. (Condition: item-not-found, Code: 404) room_not_creatable Entering a room Inform user that room creation is restricted (Condition: not-allowed, Code: 405) use_reserved_nick Entering a room Inform user that the reserved roomnick must be used (Condition: not-acceptable, Code: 406) not_on_memberlist Entering a room Inform user that he or she is not on the member list (Condition: registration-required, Code: 407) nickname_in_use Entering a room Inform user that his or her desired room nickname is in use or registered by another user (Condition: conflict, Code: 409) room_full Entering a room Inform user that the maximum number of users has been reached (Condition: service-unavailable, Code: 503) The condition and code are also available through the AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::Presence object returned by "presence_error", see below. text This method returns a human readable text if one is available. presence_error Returns a AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::Presence object if this error origins to such an error and not some internal error. message_error Returns a AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::Message object if this error origins to such an error and not some internal error.
