Perl Libraries I Made

In this section I am making available a set of Perl Libraries that I developed over many 1000s of hours between 1999 and 2009. There are currently 56+ here, some of whose original purpose is to implement an unlimited number of unrelated dynamic web-sites at once, but they can be used for various other purposes as well. They are all Perl 5 and/or Perl 6 Object Classes; some require Perl version 5.004 or newer, and others require 5.008001 and/or 6.0 or newer.

For those of you that are interested in the bleeding edge of development, I now have all of my newer modules (mainly whose problem domain is databases) in one or more public Subversion repositories, but not my older modules (which are not about databases). All of my development up to 2005.09.28, the first major code base, is here, which is the result of incremental-change development since late 2002. As of 2005.09.30, I have begun a rewrite of those modules that includes parallel Perl 6 and Perl 5 versions, which is heavily inspired by the previous work, but is a new, second major code base. The second major versions are available here (Perl 6) and here (Perl 5); the relevant sub-directories are "Locale-KeyedText" and "Muldis-Rosetta".

You can download slightly older versions of all of my Perl 5 modules from the public CPAN archives here, or on my own web server here. They are grouped into 12 distributions, each of which is tarred and gzipped. If you don't know how to open those then try one of Aladdin's free Expander products for Macintosh or Windows or Linux; if you have any Unix flavor or Linux then this is a native file type and you can use "tar".

Any Perl 6 versions of my modules are available on CPAN as part of the Perl6-Pugs distribution in its ext/ directory; they currently only run under Pugs and are used to test it.

CPAN also extracts the POD from modules and maintains that documentation in an organized and searchable fashion. Their main search site is here, and my own DUNCAND author page is here.

You can download my oldest tarred and gzipped distributions from BACKPAN, here, or from my web server, here, right back to the libdwg 1.0, first released on 2000 July 23.

Please note that my websites only use a fraction of the modules' capabilities, so please don't limit your perception of them based on what I have used.
