After a failed open, I want to run two statements for an "or die".

Code Quesiton:

open (TEST, ">/tmp/test")
    or {
        die "Could not open test file\n";
        syslog("LOG_ALERT","Could not open test file");
         };

This does not work, but what is the "right" way to do this? I know I could write a MyDie sub and pass a string to it.

open TEST, '>', '/tmp/test' or do { syslog( 'LOG_ALERT', 'Could not open test file' ); die "Could not open test file\n"; };


unless ( open TEST, '>', '/tmp/test' ) { syslog( 'LOG_ALERT', 'Could not open test file' ); die "Could not open test file\n"; }
