Product Description

Book Description
Perl is not only the scripting language of choice for many people, but a powerful programming language that can be used to develop serious applications. Backed by numerous libraries, this language is capable of performing just about any task.

This book examines the Perl libraries that are most interesting to developers of professional, real-world applications. It covers web client and server programming, manipulating data in databases and LDAP servers, network and distributed programming, embedding Perl into web pages (templates, HTML::Mason, HTML::Embperl, Apache::ASP, and PerlScript), mathematical and computational applications, graphics and GUI programming, and creating and manipulating XML.

From the Publisher
With its broad and deep coverage of key topics in advanced Perl programming, this book is an essential read for developers who are interested in integrating Perl with various technologies and developing sophisticated applications. Building on a working knowledge of Perl, this book provides clear and detailed coverage of its topics using illustrative examples. Even experienced Perl programmers are certain to find something new in this book about this genuinely extensible language.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not sure this quite works, 11 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This is a strange little book (well, not so little) - it's less about Perl than clever things you can do with Perl. Don't get this if you want to learn Perl, or if you want an advanced insight into the workings of the language. In fact the preface acknowledges it as a follow up to Wrox's Professional Perl Programming. However, it does function as documentation for some of the significant Perl libraries (which don't tend to be covered in much detail on paper), and you could treat it as a programmer's cookbook to some degree.

Each chapter includes a fair amount of background to whatever area is going to be tackled in Perl: this introductory material can be a bit tedious, especially if you already know something about the area but want to find out how to access it from Perl.

Overall, covers a lot of ground. There are more detailed books around for specific areas, but I can't think of any others with as wide a scope.
