A structured type constraint is a standard container Moose type constraint, such as an ArrayRef or HashRef, which has been enhanced to allow you to explicitly name all the allowed type constraints inside the structure. The generalized form is: TypeConstraint[@TypeParameters or %TypeParameters] Where 'TypeParameters' is an array reference or hash references of Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint objects. This type library enables structured type constraints. It is built on top of the MooseX::Types library system, so you should review the documentation for that if you are not familiar with it.

Object::InsideOut provides comprehensive support for implementing classes using the inside-out object model. This module implements inside-out objects as anonymous scalar references that are blessed into a class with the scalar containing the ID for the object (usually a sequence number). For Perl 5.8.3 and later, the scalar reference is set as read-only to prevent accidental modifications to the ID. Object data (i.e., fields) are stored within the class's package in either arrays indexed by the object's ID, or hashes keyed to the object's ID.

RecDescent incrementally generates top-down recursive-descent text parsers from simple yacc-like grammar specifications. It provides: * Regular expressions or literal strings as terminals (tokens) * Multiple (non-contiguous) productions for any rule * Repeated, optional and alternate subrules within productions * Late-bound (run-time dispatched) subrules * Full access to Perl within actions specified as part of the grammar * Simple automated error reporting during generation and parsing * The ability to commit to, uncommit to, or reject particular productions during a parse * Incremental extension of the parsing grammar (even during a parse) * The ability to retrieve the generated parsing code.

Resources are a way to specify information of interest to program or packages. Applications use resource files to specify and document the values of quantities or attributes of interest. Resources can be loaded from or saved to resource files. Methods are provided to search, modify and create resources. Packages use resources to hardwire in their code the default values for their attributes, along with documentation for the attributes themselves. Packages inherit resources when subclassed, and the resource names are updated dynamically to reflect a class hierarchy. Methods are provided for interactive resource inspection and editing.

This is a specialized POD viewer to extract embedded tests and code examples from POD. It doesn't do much more than that. pod2test does the useful work. After creating a Pod::Tests object, you parse the POD by calling one of the available parsing methods documented below. You can call parse as many times as you'd like, all examples and tests found will stack up inside the object. Once extracted, the tests can be built into stand-alone testing code using the build_tests() and build_examples() methods. However, it is recommended that you first look at the pod2test program before embarking on this.

Regexp::Compare implements a function comparing regular expressions: it returns true if all strings matched by the first regexp are also matched by the second. It's meant to be used for optimization of blacklists implemented by regular expressions (like, for example, http://www.communitywiki.org/cw/BannedContent). False return value does not imply that there's a string matched by the first regexp which isn't matched by the second - many regular expressions (i.e. those containing Perl code) are impossible to compare, and this module doesn't even implement all possible comparisons.

LRC - Perl interface for longitudinal redundancy check generation The Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC) is a one byte character, commonly used as a byte-field in data transmission over analog systems. Most commonly, in STX-ETX bounded strings sent in financial protocols. Following some previous experience with such protocols, I wrote an LRC function in perl and later decided to re-write in C for efficiency. The result is this module String::LRC, which generates this aforementioned byte. Commonly used in financial protocols as follows with ETX (ASCII 03) appended to LRC sum and packets after the STX (ASCII 02), payload, and ETX chars.

Test::Class provides a simple way of creating classes and objects to test your code in an xUnit style. Built using Test::Builder it is designing to work with other Test::Builder based modules (Test::More, Test::Differences, Test::Exception, etc.) Note: This module will make more sense if you are already familiar with the "standard" mechanisms for testing perl code. Those unfamiliar with Test::Harness, Test::Simple, Test::More and friends should go take a look at them now. Note: This is an early release. Things may change. Be warned.

Main Features of Sun's SpecTcl 1.1 ================================== Easy to Learn: SpecTcl's drag & drop interface along with a powerful toolbar and on-line help make it easy to start building GUI applications. Tcl and Java Support: SpecTcl generates both Tcl and Java code. Platform Independent: SpecTcl runs on all major platforms: Solaris, SunOS, Linux, Windows 95, Windows NT Server 3.51, Windows NT Workstation 3.51, MacOS, and Irix. Constraint Based Alignment and resizing of widgets (buttons, Geometry Manager: check boxes, etc.) is automatic. This makes creating dynamic UIs and cross platform UIs a snap!

RLog provides a flexible message logging facility for C++ programs and libraries. It is subscription based, meaning you can subscribe to messages of your choice in an number of ways: by hierarchical channel name (e.g. "debug", "debug/ special", "error", etc.), or file name, component name, etc. Log messages are individually enabled. It is meant to be fast enough to leave in production code - even where it may be called many times, as both the GCC and Intel compilers reduce the logging overhead a few clock cycles if they are dormant (with no subscribers). Other add-on components can extend subscriptions to external programs, allowing you to enable and collect debugging messages remotely.
