Perl doesn't go to error section
<p>I have a Perl statement like the one below</p>

<pre><code>seek DCMFReport.txt, $offset, 0 or die "Report seek error, offset:$offset - $!";
</code></pre>

<p>When it hits the above line, I get an "argument error" but I don't see the text in the die printed out. I expected to see the "Report seek error..." printed out. Does that mean the code did not go to the die section even though the statement threw an error?</p>
