NAME

LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid::Compat - LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid drop-in replacement for LWPx::ParanoidAgent

SYNOPSIS

    use LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid::Compat;
    my $ua = LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid::Compat->new;

    # use $ua the same as LWPx::ParanoidAgent...

DESCRIPTION

This class is a subclass of LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid and changes the default behaviour and interface to match LWPx::ParanoidAgent as closely as possible.

Differences from LWP::UserAgent::Paranoid

  • Only HTTP and HTTPS are allowed

  • Timeout is 15s by default

  • A timeout constructor param and "timeout" method are available

  • The "resolver" method gets/sets the underlying resolver used by an Net::DNS::Paranoid instance instead of acting as the getter of the Net::DNS::Paranoid instance itself. The resolver constructor param follows suite.

All bugs should be reported via rt.cpan.org or bug-LWP-UserAgent-Paranoid@rt.cpan.org.
