The libwww-perl collection is a set of Perl modules which provides a simple and consistent application programming interface (API) to the World-Wide Web. The main focus of the library is to provide classes and functions that allow you to write WWW cl...

perl58delta - what is new for perl v5.8.0

398 ++

398 ++

This document describes differences between the 5.6.0 release and the 5.8.0 release. Many of the bug fixes in 5.8.0 were already seen in the 5.6.1 maintenance release since the two releases were kept closely coordinated (while 5.8.0 was still called ...

GD::Graph - Graph Plotting Module for Perl 5

7 ++

7 ++

GD::Graph is a *perl5* module to create charts using the GD module. The following classes for graphs with axes are defined: "GD::Graph::lines" Create a line chart. "GD::Graph::bars" and "GD::Graph::hbars" Create a bar chart with vertical or horizonta...

File::Temp - return name and handle of a temporary file safely

57 ++

57 ++

"File::Temp" can be used to create and open temporary files in a safe way. There is both a function interface and an object-oriented interface. The File::Temp constructor or the tempfile() function can be used to return the name and the open filehand...

IO::Lambda - non-blocking I/O as lambda calculus

2 ++

2 ++

This module is another attempt to fight the horrors of non-blocking I/O. It tries to bring back the simplicity of the declarative programming style, that is only available when one employs threads, coroutines, or co-processes. Usually coding non-bloc...

• IO::Lambda::Backtrace - backtrace chains of events

primes - generate primes

34 ++

34 ++

The primes utility prints primes in ascending order, one per line, starting at or above *start* and continuing until, but not including *stop*. The *start* value must be at least 0 and not greater than stop. The *stop* value must not be greater than ...

• factor - factor a number

CGI::Safe - Safe method of using CGI.pm. This is pretty much a two-line change for most CGI scripts.

++

++

If you've been working with CGI.pm for any length of time, you know that it allows uploads by default and does not have a maximum post size. Since it saves the uploads as a temp file, someone can simply upload enough data to fill up your hard drive t...

SuperSplit - Provides methods to split/join in two or more dimensions

++

++

Supersplit is just a consequence of the possibility to use multi-dimensional arrays in perl. Because that is possible, one also wants a way to convenienently split data into a nD-array (at least I want to). And vice versa, of course. Supersplit/join ...

Text::xSV - read character separated files

3 ++

3 ++

This module is for reading and writing a common variation of character separated data. The most common example is comma-separated. However that is far from the only possibility, the same basic format is exported by Microsoft products using tabs, colo...

Filter::CBC - Source filter for Cipher Block Chaining

1 ++

1 ++

Filter::CBC is a Source filter that uses Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) to encrypt your code. The tricky part is that most CBC Algorithms have binary output. The textmode bypasses this obstacle, by converting the data to less scary data....

Tie::Static - create static lexicals

++

++

This module makes it easy to produce static variables. A static variable is a variable whose value will remain constant from invocation to invocation. The usual way to produce this is to create an enclosing scope which contains a lexically scoped var...

DBIx::Tree::NestedSet

++

++

This module implements a "Nested Set" parent/child tree, and is focused (at least in my mind) towards offering methods that make developing web applications easier. It should be generally useful, though. See the "SEE ALSO" section for resources that ...

Text::RecordParser - read record-oriented files

++

++

This module is for reading record-oriented data in a delimited text file. The most common example have records separated by newlines and fields separated by commas or tabs, but this module aims to provide a consistent interface for handling sequentia...

File::Stream - Regular expression delimited records from streams

2 ++

2 ++

Perl filehandles are streams, but sometimes they just aren't powerful enough. This module offers to have streams from filehandles searched with regexes and allows the global input record separator variable to contain regexes. Thus, readline() and the...

Sub::Auto - declare individual handlers for AUTLOADed subs, respecting can and inheritance

1 ++

1 ++

"AUTOLOAD", like other languages' "method-missing" features is a useful feature for those situations when you want to handle sub or method calls dynamically, and can't pre-generate the subroutines with accessor generators. To be sure, this is almost ...

Math::Fleximal - Integers with flexible representations.

3 ++

3 ++

This is a package for doing integer arithmetic while using a different base representation than normal. In base n arithmetic you have n symbols which have a representation. I was going to call them "glyphs", but being text strings they are not really...

Sys::RunAlone - make sure only one invocation of a script is active at a time

5 ++

5 ++

Provide a simple way to make sure the script from which this module is loaded, is only running once on the server. Optionally allow for retrying execution until the other instance of the script has finished....

Role::RunAlone - prevent multiple instances of a script from running

++

++

This Role provides a simple way for a command line script to ensure that only a single instance of said script is able to run at one time. This is accomplished by trying to obtain an exclusive lock on the script's "__DATA__" or "__END__" section. The...

Class::AutoloadCAN - Make AUTOLOAD, can and inheritance cooperate.

++

++

This module solves a fundamental conflict between AUTOLOAD, can and inheritance. The problem is that while you can implement anything in AUTOLOAD, UNIVERSAL::can is not aware that it is there. Attempting to modify UNIVERSAL::can to document those met...
