Network Programming with Perl, Paperback / softback Book

Network Programming with Perl Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Any developer who's comfortable with Perl can build remarkably powerful TCP/IP network applications -- no C required!

In Network Programming with Perl, Lincoln Stein shows how, step-by-step, with extensive code examples.

Modeled on W. Richard Stevens' legendary Unix network programming book, this book opens up network programming to a new generation of programmer: Web developers ready to build serious network applications and solve complex network problems.

Stein begins with an overview of Perl's increasingly powerful networking facilities; then introduces Berkeley Sockets, and the UDP and TCP protocols at the heart of network programming.

He presents Perl's IO:: socket API, which simplifies the creation and use of sockets; demonstrates how to create forking servers; and introduces practical techniques for creating multithreaded and multiplexed applications.

Modeled upon the style of Stevens, and using extensive sample code, Stein demonstrates all of the key features.

Network Programming with Perl also includes chapter-length explanations of creating Internet modules for FTP and Telnet; Mail and News; and Web services.
