Package details
POE is an event-driven networking and multitasking framework for Perl.
It has been in active development since 1996, with its first open
release in 1998. O'Reilly's 'The Perl Conference' (now OSCON's Perl
track) named POE 'Best New Module' in 1999.
POE has been used in mission-critical systems such as internetworked
financial markets, file systems, commerce and application servers. It
has been used in projects ranging from a few lines of code to tens of
thousands.
POE is compatible with perl versions as old as 5.005_03. This may
change as it becomes harder to support old versions of Perl over time.
POE includes an evolving component framework. Components are
high-level, modular, reusable pieces of programs. Several components
have been published on the CPAN, and more are listed on POE's web
site. See: http://search.cpan.org/search?query=POE&mode=dist
POE includes components and libraries for making quick work of network
clients, servers, and peers. A simple stand-alone web application
takes about 30 lines of code, most of which is your own custom logic.
