This module compares arbitrary data structures to see if they are copies of each other.

Crypt::MySQL emulates the MySQL PASSWORD() function. The module does not depend on an interface to the MySQL database server. This enables the comparison of encrypted passwords without the need for a real MySQL environment.

Class::XSAccessor implements fast read, write, and read/write accessors in XS. Additionally, it can provide predicates such as "has_foo()" for testing whether the attribute "foo" is defined in the object. It only works with objects that are implemented as ordinary hashes. Class::XSAccessor::Array implements the same interface for objects that use arrays for their internal representation.

Role::Tiny is a minimalist role composition tool.

Loading MooX::StrictConstructor makes your constructors "strict". If your constructor is called with an attribute init argument that your class does not declare, then it dies.

Some Perl modules need to ship C libraries together with their Perl code. Although there are mechanisms to compile and link (or glue) C code in your Perl programs, there isn't a clear method to compile standard, self-contained C libraries. This module main goal is to help in that task.

This module provides a facility for creating non-modifiable variables in Perl. This is useful for configuration files, headers, etc. It can also be useful as a development and debugging tool for catching updates to variables that should not be changed.

Socket::MsgHdr provides advanced socket messaging operations via sendmsg and recvmsg.

It also allows manipulating ancillary data or so-called control information (cmsghdr). This ancillary data may be used for file descriptor passing, IPv6 operations, and a host of implementation-specific extensions.

This is Graph, a Perl module for dealing with graphs, the abstract data structures.

Sub::Exporter is an incredibly powerful module, but with that power comes great responsibility, as well as some runtime penalties. This module is a "Sub::Exporter" wrapper that will let your users just use Exporter if all they are doing is picking exports, but use "Sub::Exporter" if your users try to use "Sub::Exporter"'s more advanced features, like renaming exports, if they try to use them.

This module can serve as a transparent interface to any TIEHASH package that is required to store arbitrary perl data, including nested references. Thus, this module can be used for storing references and other arbitrary data within DBM databases.

This package provides tools for sorting and comparing Unicode data.

This Perl module implements Perl hashes that preserve the order in which the hash elements were added. The order is not affected when values corresponding to existing keys in the IxHash are changed. The elements can also be set to any arbitrary supplied order. The familiar perl array operations can also be performed on the IxHash.

The DateTime::Locale modules provide localization data for the DateTime.pm class.

PPI::XS provides (minor) XS acceleration for PPI.

This module implements the algorithm for the solution of Bezier curves as presented by Robert D Miller in Graphics Gems V, "Quick and Simple Bezier Curve Drawing".

This policy checks for perlsecret operators in your code and warns you about them. You can override the secrets that are allowed or disallowed using the parameters allow_secrets and disallow_secrets. The default is to simply disallow everything.

Exporter::Lite is an alternative to Exporter, intended to provide a lightweight subset of the most commonly-used functionality. It supports import(), @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK and not a whole lot else.

This is a minimalist Perl module for building simple classes with read-only accessors.

This module applies roles to make a subclass instead of manually setting up a subclass.

File::Find is great, but constructing the wanted routine can sometimes be a pain. File::Finder provides a wanted-writer, using syntax that is directly mappable to the find(1) command's syntax.

A File::Finder object contains a hash of File::Find options, and a series of steps that mimic find's predicates. Initially, a File::Finder object has no steps. Each step method clones the previous object's options and steps, and then adds the new step, returning the new object. In this manner, an object can be grown, step by step, by chaining method calls. Furthermore, a partial sequence can be created and held, and used as the head of many different sequences.

Lexical::Persistence introduces persistent lexical variable values for arbitrary calls.

The "mro" namespace provides several utilities for dealing with method resolution order and method caching in general in Perl 5.9.5 and higher. This module provides those interfaces for earlier versions of Perl (back to 5.6.0).

This module provides an interface to layout and image generation of directed and undirected graphs in a variety of formats (PostScript, PNG, etc.) using the dot, neato, twopi, circo, and fdp programs from the Graphviz project. This package is deprecated in favour of GraphViz2.
