This extension provides interface to the libeio library. Libeio is a an asynchronous I/O library. Features basically include asynchronous versions of POSIX API(read, write, open, close, stat, unlink, fdatasync, mknod, readdir etc.); sendfile (native on Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, FreeBSD); readahead. libeio itself emulates the system calls, if they are not available on specific(UNIX-like) platform.

Data::Perl is a collection of classes that wrap fundamental data types that exist in Perl. These classes and methods as they exist today are an attempt to mirror functionality provided by Moose's Native Traits. One important thing to note is all classes currently do no validation on constructor input.

A Moose-based role that enables the consumer to easily serialize/deserialize data structures. The default serializer is Storable, but any serializer in the Data::Serializer hierarchy can be used automatically. You can even install your own custom serializer if the pre-defined ones are not useful for you.

Date::Convert allows you to convert date formats using an OO mechanism that lets you easily choose any two formats and add in new ones. If you have suggestions, bug reports, or if you want to add a new date format, feel free to contact me: morty@sanctuary.arbutus.md.us

The callsite() function returns the callsite (a number) one level up from where it was called. See the tests for an example. It's useful for functions that need to uniquely know where they were called, such as Every::every() (see devel/p5-Every).

Devel::Diagram scans the given Perl modules attempting to discover the class structure. It produces a hash table that can be converted to XML (or other formats) via Render(). An XSL stylesheet is included that converts the XML class diagram into HTML.

This module provides tracking of objects, for the purpose of detecting memory leaks due to circular references or inappropriate caching schemes. Object tracking can be enabled on a per object basis or globally. Any objects thus tracked are remembered until DESTROYed; details of any objects left are printed out to stderr at END-time.

This package supplies variables that are "tied" to environment variables like 'PS1' and 'PS2', if read it takes the contents of the variable as a format string like the ones bash(1) uses to format the prompt. It is intended to be used in combination with the various ReadLine packages.

This module serves as an easy, clean alternative to Exporter. Unlike Exporter, it is not subclassed, but it simply exports a custom import() into your namespace. With Exporter::Tidy, you don't need to use any package global in your module. Even the subs you export can be lexically scoped.

DynaLoader::Functions provides a function-based interface to dynamic loading as used by Perl. Some details of dynamic loading are very platform-dependent, so correct use of these functions requires the programmer to be mindful of the space of platform variations.
