Subject: File::Copy doesn't set $! on error
Date: Thu, 5 May 2016 01:43:24 +0100
To: bug-Perl-Dist-Strawberry [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Steven Hartland <steven.hartland [...] multiplay.co.uk>
Using copy from File::Copy doesn't set $! on error. copy returns 0 but $! is blank. Switching to a manual copy which uses a creating "open" returns the correct error of "Permission Denied" so it looks like this may be a issue with File::Copy on Strawberry. Windows 10 64bit and Strawberry version is 5.22.2.1 64bit.

Probably should be reported at the File::Copy bugtracker --- which is rt.perl.org.
