A very powerful and verstile tool
Well written, but not terribly useful for what I wanted.
good book for several audiences The book is a very gentle and seemingly thorough introduction and explanation.The authors write with clarity and humor.I must admit that the authors write with such thoroughness and gentleness that I sometimes grew impatient.One addition I would have liked is more examples.Chapter 2 carefully explains a complete, but very simple example and Chapters 11 and 12 contain much richer examples.However, I find that I never learn unless I *do* and for such a long book, I was surprised that there wasn't more directly about the application of the TT. You can use this book and the toolkit without knowing any Perl.The authors explain things well and clearly.However, you will get maximum value from the TT (and grok the syntax most quickly) if you know some Perl.The material on filters and plugins (there is a chapter on each, parts of another chapter about writing your own, plus entire chapters dealing with DBI and XML plugins... it's a good chunk of the book) is wonderfully detailed and probably justifies the book. I skimmed most of the material on hacking and extending the toolkit.It seemed pretty thorough, even explaining how to alter or replace the TT syntax (right down to a quick tutorial on Yapp/yacc).I learned a lot from the little bit I read.I suspect this would be very helpful to Perl hackers and others as an example. A note about the toolkit itself.It's very powerful.In many ways, it's like Perl itself (e.g., it has a Perl-like syntax).It has exceptions but scoping seems weak and there appears not to be anything like 'use strict'. In summary, this is a good book for a variety of audiences.It is very well written and you should leave it's pages with enough know-how to use it for something like web page generation.I learned a lot about Perl and available CPAN modules (in addition to learning a lot about the TT).But I wish there was more direct practical application as examples, exercises, recipes, etc. ...

Editorial Review Product Description — A.P. Lawrence, Information and Resources for Unix and Linux Systems Perl, one of the world's most diffuse programming languages, was born out of the need to resolve the creator's dissatisfaction with what were at the time standard data-parsing solutions. Indeed, since the 1.0 release in 1987, Perl has been heralded for its powerful parsing capabilities&emdash;features that are further enhanced through the thousands of Perl extensions made available through CPAN (the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network). Pro Perl Parsing begins with several chapters devoted to key parsing principles, discussing topics pertinent to regular expressions, parsing grammars, and parsing techniques. This material sets the stage for later chapters, which introduce numerous and powerful CPAN parsing modules, and provide an ample supply of example applications. Customer Reviews (9)

Editorial Review Product Description MySQL and Perl for the Web provides a much-needed handbook for database and Web developers seeking an extensive and detailed guide for using the combination of MySQL and Perl to build dynamic and interactive database-backed Web sites. It shows how to use Perl's DBI database access module, pairing it with with the CGI.pm module that allows Web pages and forms to be generated and processed easily. These tools provide developers with a solid foundation for creating applications that incorporate database content to create dynamic, up-to-date Web sites. The book employs a practical learn-by-doing approach that demonstrates development techniques by building complete applications, not just fragmentary pieces. It shows what to do at each step of the way during the process of building live, working examples. Applications are fully explained so you can understand how they work and apply the techniques they illustrate to your own projects. The book is perfect for developers of Web sites running on Apache on Unix. Loyalties vary in terms of operating systems, Web servers, and scripting languages, but those who find their home in the Unix and Perl environments will find this book right up their alleys. The target audience is developers somewhat familiar with Perl and the Unix-based Web server environment, but you'll find the book illustrative even if your knowledge is sketchy. After showing how to make database connections using Perl and MySQL, author Paul DuBois dives into some useful real-world examples to help you build your skills. He shows how to implement a simple to-do list application, an online product registration site, contests, online polls, image databases, an online greeting card service, and more.There is also excellent coverage of search facilities and session management. The sample code for the applications in this text is presented in small pieces in context with the discussion; most of the space is devoted to explanations of the issues and implementation. All of the code is available, however, from the book's companion Web site. This tutorial is an excellent way for Perl developers to move to the next level of development and make the most of some powerful, free tools. --Stephen W. Plain Customer Reviews (26)
A great book to get you up to speed
An excellent book on both MySQL and Perl.
This is the most important book in my library (of over 300) The attention to detail and accuracy of the examples is just incredible! This is by far the most used reference book in my library.After repeatedly having to tape the book together, I finally gave it away and bought a new one. Following his examples eliminates many potentialpitfalls that would otherwise result in hours of troubleshooting. I can't imagine how I would have ever learned this information without the expert advice of the author, Paul DuBois.His coverage of CGI.pm is essential as well as his list of other books to read. I think I have all his other books as well. He even returned email almost immediately! My only complaint is that it isn't bound in leather!
Clear explanations and excellent examples
MySQL and Perl but no templates? Seems like a big omission to me. YMMV. ... Read more |

Needs update
Fantastic
relevant, practical and well-balanced The book assumes the reader will have the knowledge of an intermediate level Perl programmer. I.e., the reader is assumed to have a working knowledge of references, data structures, and object-oriented Perl. On the other hand no previous knowledge of XML, XML-RPC, SOAP or XML related technologies is required. It should also be mentioned that both of the authors Randy J. Ray and Pavel Kulchenko are also the principle developers of the most popular XML-RPC and SOAP Perl modules: XML::RPC and SOAP::Lite respectively. That said, the book is not a soap box for the authors to tout the merits of their tools. Rather, it is a practical book which starts with grounding fundamentals. Readers should walk away with a core understanding of XML-RPC and SOAP and not just a particular tool set for working with them. The authors examine the alternative XML-RPC and SOAP tools, illustrate how they are used, and give practical and even handed reasons why their modules should be preferred. Which comes down to issues of features, active development, support, and the amount of work required to code to a particular interface. They then settle down to a comfortable and thorough guide to XML::RPC and SOAP::Lite. The topics and issues are illustrated throughout using real world web services. For example creating an XML-RPC client for O'Reilly's Meerkat news wire, or a SOAP client to covert use.perl.org's journal stream to RSS. Code is presented to the reader filtered down to highlight each particular issue as it is discussed. This is nice in that it avoids listing slight variations of the same code multiple times, but on the down side it can also leave the reader flipping back and forth to reassemble an example in their head. Full code for each example is provided in the appendices. And all of the example code may be downloaded from O'Reilly at [their web site]. All-in-all, the book is a thorough practical introduction to working with XML-RPC, SOAP and related technologies. When I started reading the book, I was a bit disappointed to see that it only covered XML-RPC and SOAP related services. When I finished, I was impressed with how very much information they'd managed to pack into so few pages. And yet, I was left wishing there'd been a more through coverage of interoperability issues between other SOAP implementations and things like custom de-serializers. To be honest interoperability and de-serialization are mentioned, and the authors do an excellent job of referring the reader on to sources for continued reading on most other topics. The book does an admirable job balancing content, length, and information density. Not to mention an excellent job delivering the information that will still be relevant years and not just weeks from the date published. Most of the topics I'd wished to see covered in more depth are those that are still developing and consequently most likely to become quickly dated. In short a well balanced practical guide to applying XML-RPC and SOAP to solve problems.
A "complete reference" is oh so hard to find...
Great intro to XML-RPC |

Editorial Review Product Description I decided to write this book for a couple of reasons. One was that I've now written a couple of books that have to do with incident response and forensic analysis on Windows systems, and I used a lot of Perl in both books. Okay.I'll come clean.I used nothing but Perl in both books! What I've seen as a result of this is that many readers want to use the tools, but don't know how.they simply aren't familiar with Perl, with interpreted (or scripting) languages in general, and may not be entirely comfortable with running tools at the command line.

Cool Perl Debugger book for experienced programmers - Introductory chapters (partly meta chapters not about the debugger but about good programming) When I bought this book I had hoped for a "...Pocket Guide"and not a "...Pocket Reference" (deeper coverage). I consider this not an extreme "...Pocket Reference" (like e.g. "Perl Pocket Reference") because this book contains examples for each of the commands and options that it describes. For me examples are the most important part in technical books. The language, the printing and the index (there is an alphabetic index) are of the usual high O'Reilly standard). I think that "Perl Debugger Pocket Reference" might be a bit heavy if you never used a command line debugger like gdb or xdb before. This book assumes that you already know what and why you want to do with the debugger, you will be explained WHO to do this with the debugger. PDPR is missing the process model when using a debugger. Personally I would have wished for even more examples and a bit more about when to use a certain feature of the debugger. For all those poor souls like me that still have to use Perl 5.5, you will not like this book because it explains the cool new features of the Perl 5.8 debugger (differences to Perl 5.6 covered as well) that are missing in Perl 5.5. I hope that I can convince my customer to upgrade to Perl 5.8 to be able to use cool new debugger (especially the w watchpoints will be great). I will keep this booklet next to my keyboard when I am Perl programming from now on to be able to lookup the Debugger functions that I will need. If you are a Perl programmer like me that does not produce flawless code, I really recommend this book. I will use it again right after finishing this review. Perl debugging will be more fun (for me) from now on. ... Read more |

A must-have
PERL by the TON
ANYONE who writes any Perl should buy this
It's a bargain
(Almost) everything a Perl Programmer needs Personally a CD with books is just an add-on to the printed versions, that I can read everywhere (bed, beach ...) and that I can mark in different colours and write on. Online books for me are for online searching and online reading of a few chapters. This CD contains all the books in HTML format with a Java based full text search engine (works for me with IE 5.5 and mostly works with Netscape ... and an HTML based Master Index. There is a problem in the Master Index for the letter "L" (bad links, see Errata). Go to the O'Reilly website and download the updated file for this index. Additionally to the online searching capabilities I really like the capability to use the WWW links to external resources directly from the CD (e.g. to CPAN). I think that the quality of the HTML translation of the books is quite high. It seems however that you need a rather new browser because we had some problems with Netscape 4.7 with the documentation. I like that all the links within the documentation are relative so that you can copy the CD wherever you like and still use it (even put it on your internal WWW server which is of course illegal). The size is rather small (60MB for all the books) so that you can put it on your laptop for mobil work. You can find the following books on the CD: The book "Perl in a Nutshell (2nd Edition) as a printed version is part of the package as a "bonus book". I like it as a reference book. Unfortunately O'Reilly did not put all its Perl books on this CD. For total happiness I am missing the following books (name your own): The price for the CD is not really low but compared with the printed versions of all the books it is reasonable from my point of view. If you are a mobile Perl user I can really recommend this CD. ... Read more |

Great book about Oracle DBA utilities written in Perl
AS FINE AS A PEARL COULD BE
Great book for DBAs wanting to take advantage of perl Jared and Andy's book neatly solved this problem.Within an hour of opening their book I had fully upgraded my perl and added heaps of fantastic utilities that I never even knew existed.Sometimes perl can be hard to install and configure but this book makes it a breeze. This book is indispensable if you are trying to get started with perl - and every DBA should!If you are already a perl user I'm sure you'll learn about new features or find utilities that will repay the cost of the book many times over.

Editorial Review Product Description And yet not. It is an ambiguous blessing that the original CGI persists, adhering to the underside of Web service by the duct tape that is Perl. This point is not missed by Guelich, Gundavaram, and Birznieks, whose advocacy of CGI is both bolstered by the growing applications module base of Perl and tempered by their awareness of CGI's structural limitations. Both new and returning readers of CGI Programming with Perl should browse the last chapter first in order to appreciate the proposed solutions to CGI's greatest sin: its impractical slowness in a world of a million-hits-per-day Web service. The chapter describes CGI-compatible FastCGI and mod_perl technologies that circumvent the process-spawning slowness of the simple CGI. Advanced users might want to skip directly to O'Reilly's fine mod_perl tome, Writing Apache Modules with Perl and C, by Lincoln Stein and Doug MacEachern. The authors' second pass at CGI pedagogy is a lucid, honest, and expanded account that develops functionality of dynamic Web pages in a rational progression--from HTML client-server and CGI syntax basics to general input/output, forms, e-mail, graphics, and simple database applications, including maintaining client state and data persistence under the otherwise stateless HTTP protocol. The authors offer synopses of cookies, JavaScripting, server security, and XML, all of which are described in detail in other books. Whether or not neoclassical CGI is fast enough for your purposes--perhaps for guarded intranets--bear in mind that CGI is the standard to which every other Web server has had to respond. The second edition of CGI Programming with Perl is still the best introduction to the classics. --Peter Leopold Customer Reviews (32)
Write an outline before you start writing a book
Great in it's day
After the errata, then what . . . Even though it's a step up from the CGI Primer Plus for Windows book (and gets a 4 star rating), it still leaves much to be desired for the person who learns by coding!
A good place to start The first third of the book is introductory in nature, with an introduction to how forms and CGI scripts work, some discussion of parsing forms in other languages, and some simple examples. The bulk of the book contains more complex examples of tasks like writing questionaires, interfacing with relational databases, maintaining state, graphics and so forth. I did glean a lot of useful information there. The biggest problem with this book is a problem that's really common to all book on Internet programming: Standards are changing so fast that a year old book is likely to contain chapter upon chapter illustrating obsolete techniques and libraries. In "CGI Programming" there are a lot of examples using Perl modules that haven't really caught on, while some of the newer modules (obviously) aren't meantioned. Another problem is that the book is kind of scattershot in the attention it gives different topics. Still, I think this is one of the better books for someone with basic Perl skills looking to get started with CGIs. There's enough detail here to start writing CGIs, and enough information out there on the web to go on learning.
Okay, but not much there. |

Mason review (dave rolsky)
Great Book but... Thanks for a great book!
Get me to the edge.... But even the introduction chapters of this book gives you new ideas how to get things done. Starting with the second half of chapter 4 every Masonsite developer should take a close look. He will find a in deep discussion about every Mason feature - and more (e.g. The Bricolage-CMS-Appendix). I my opinion there is no discussion "to buy or not to buy" this book. The only question is "when". On the one hand this book can be a bit boring for "new" Mason user and as mentioned before the online documentation is very good. On the other hand if you have your first mason-site done and read this book you will have very likely the urgent desire to rewrite some code. But this is a common perl problem: "There are many ways to get things done." I dislike the "Example" chapter. One of the big advantages of Mason is the possibility to seperate perl-code and HTML. This ist not very well done within the example-site. Conclusion: This book is not needed to get in touch with Mason althought usefull - but if you are really starting to deploy a site I strongly recommend this book. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Is there any sexier topic in software development than software testing?That is, besides game programming, 3D graphics, audio, high-performance clustering, cool websites, et cetera? Okay, so software testing is low on the list.And that's unfortunate, because good software testing can increase your productivity, improve your designs, raise your quality, ease your maintenance burdens, and help to satisfy your customers, coworkers, and managers. Perl has a strong history of automated tests.A very early release of Perl 1.0 included a comprehensive test suite, and it's only improved from there.Learning how Perl's test tools work and how to put them together to solve all sorts of previously intractable problems can make you a better programmer in general.Besides, it's easy to use the Perl tools describedto handle all sorts of testing problems that you may encounter, even in other languages. Like all titles in O'Reilly's Developer's Notebook series, this "all lab, no lecture" book skips the boring prose and focuses instead on a series of exercises that speak to you instead of at you. Perl Testing: A Developer's Notebook will help you dive right in and: With today's increased workloads and short development cycles, unit tests are more vital to building robust, high-quality software than ever before. Once mastered, these lessons will help you ensure low-level code correctness, reduce software development cycle time, and ease maintenance burdens. You don't have to be a die-hard free and open source software developer who lives, breathes, and dreams Perl to use this book.You just have to want to do your job a little bit better.

Editorial Review Product Description You'll learn: * The Basics: where to write your CGI programs; how to upload them and set file permissions; how to run them, and how to debug them when things go wrong * How to decode form data and save it to a file or e-mail it to yourself * How to create, read, write, and search data files * How to use Server-Side Includes to add dynamic content to your web site, plus a complete list of Apache SSI directives * How to use random numbers for displaying banner ads and random images * How to redirect visitors to another site * How to extend your programs by using modules * How to create a MySQL database, and write programs that interact with databases using the DBI module * How to build an online shopping cart program * How to e-mail attachments using a CGI program * How to write secure programs, and protect your programs against hackers and spammers * How to password-protect an area of your website ...and more. The second edition has been substantially revised, with 100 pages of new material. It teaches good programming practices from the beginning, including use of the industry-standard CGI.pm Perl module. You'll learn how to protect your form-to-mail programs from being hijacked by spammers, how to build a cookie-based shopping cart, and how to develop a password-protected website. Quick-reference pages and an improved index help you find information easily. There are also several online tutorials to help you set up your own web server and write CGI programs on any computer system - including Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix. Form processing is addressed early on, followed by searching and sorting techniques, illustrations of how to use server-side includes (SSI), and other critical issues. There's also a chapter on using MySQL--an open-source SQL database. In general, if you want to get the most out of this book, you'll be better off having some programming experience, be it in BASIC or C++. The only element missing from this introductory course is an appendix containing Perl's reserved characters, operators, and functions; instead, this material is presented throughout the book. But CGI Programming 101 is still one of the most efficient ways to get up to speed with Perl CGI. --Stephen W. Plain Topics covered: Perl variables, CGI environment variables, form processing, data file I/O, searching/sorting, server-side includes (SSI), random number generation, strings, date and time manipulation, HTTP cookies, e-mail processing, securing scripts, Perl modules, database programming, and custom Perl modules.

Editorial Review Product Description Fritz Perls provides a clear account of the diverse life of this popular but controversial psychotherapist and discusses his theoretical ideas simply and lucidly. The book includes examples of Perls' work, drawn from transcripts and films of his demonstration sessions. These examples, together with the present authors' commentaries on them, offer a unique illustration of what Perls' theoretical ideas meant in practice, and make his work available for observation and evaluation to a degree which is rarely matched by other exponents of psychotherapeutic theory. A further feature is a full acknowledgement of the criticisms and appreciations which Perls' life and work have attracted and an honest evaluation of whether and to what extent they are justified. Comprehensive and jargon-free, this overview will be invaluable for all counsellors and psychotherapists. Customer Reviews (1)
