The functions exported by this module deal with runtime handling of Perl modules, which are normally handled at compile time.

This package provides event loop processing.

PPIX::QuoteLike parses Perl string literals and things that are reasonably like string literals. Its real reason for being is to find interpolated variables for Perl::Critic policies and similar code.

Config::INI::Reader::Ordered is a Perl library for parsing .ini files that returns the sections in order.

This package provides procedures to create read-only scalars, arrays, and hashes.

Guard implements so-called guards. A guard is something (usually an object) that "guards" a resource, ensuring that it is cleaned up when expected.

Specifically, this module supports two different types of guards: guard objects, which execute a given code block when destroyed, and scoped guards, which are tied to the scope exit.

Class::Inspector allows you to get information about a loaded class.

This module provides a simple but extensible way of having plugins for your Perl module.

This module provides convenience methods that let you easily create DateTime::Set objects for various recurrences, such as "once a month" or "every day". You can also create more complicated recurrences, such as "every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday at 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM".

SVG is a Perl module which generates a nested data structure containing the DOM representation of an SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) image. Using SVG, you can generate SVG objects, embed other SVG instances into it, access the DOM object, create and access Javascript, and generate SMIL animation content.

This package provides a way to sort revision-like numbers.

Module::Find lets you find and use modules in categories. This can be useful for auto-detecting driver or plugin modules. You can differentiate between looking in the category itself or in all subcategories.

This package provides functions to work with directory and file names.

shell-quote lets you pass arbitrary strings through the shell so that they won't be changed.

This is a meta-package that installs the CPAN dependencies of the Freecell Solver test suite.

This package provides asynchronous and advanced input/output for Perl.

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.

Data::OptList provides a simple syntax for name/value option pairs.

This package contains functions to manipulate a MANIFEST file. The package exports no functions by default. The following are exported on request: mkmanifest, manifind, manicheck, filecheck, fullcheck, skipcheck, maniread, maniskip, manicopy, maniadd.

The Specio distribution provides classes for representing type constraints and coercion, along with syntax sugar for declaring them. Note that this is not a proper type system for Perl. Nothing in this distribution will magically make the Perl interpreter start checking a value's type on assignment to a variable. In fact, there's no built-in way to apply a type to a variable at all. Instead, you can explicitly check a value against a type, and optionally coerce values to that type.

This Digest::Perl::MD5 has the same interface as the much faster Digest::MD5, but it's a pure Perl implementation of MD5. Because of this it is slow but it works without C code.

IPC::ShareLite provides a simple interface to shared memory, allowing data to be efficiently communicated between processes.

This package provides asynchronous Berkeley DB Access.

Hash::MultiValue is an object (and a plain hash reference) that may contain multiple values per key, inspired by MultiDict of WebOb.
