一些常用模块的简单描述 http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6/pod/perlmodlib.html

在perl 中使用模块：
模块的下载地址：http://www.cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html
安装模块：
1. perl Makefile.PL
2. make
3. make test
4. make install
也可以用如下命令安装模块(已知的适用的系统redhat 9.0，其他的我不知道，请大家试试看 :) 。
perl -MCPAN -e shell>

接着输入：install MODEL_NAME

查看模块的帮助：
perldoc MODEL_NAME
例如：
perldoc Net::FTP

my $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new("$host:$port")
or die "Socket() error, Reason : $! \n";

print $sock $http_head;
print <$sock>;

exit 0;

---------------------------------------------------------------
(8) Date::Manip, DateCalc(), UnixDate()

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Date::Manip;
my $date1 = "Fri Jun 6 18:31:42 GMT 2003";
my $date2 = "2003/05/06";
my $flag=&Date_Cmp($date1,$date2);

if($flag<0)
{
print "date1 is earlier!\n";
}
elsif($flag==0)
{
print "the two dates are identical!\n";
}
else
{
print "date2 is earlier!\n";
}
exit 0;

--------------------------------------------------------------------
10) File::Find, find()
PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use File::Find;

my $file = "access.log";
my $path = "/";

find(&process, $path);

sub process{ print $File::Find::dir, "$_\n" if(/$file/); }

exit 0;

#用于在unix文件树结构中查找对象。

---------------------------------------------------------------
(11) ExtUtils::Installed, new(), modules(), version()

查看已经安装的模块的相应信息。
PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use ExtUtils::Installed;

my $inst= ExtUtils::Installed->new();
my @modules = $inst->modules();

foreach(@modules)
{
my $ver = $inst->version($_) || "???";
printf("%-12s -- %s\n", $_, $ver);
}
exit 0;

--------------------------------------------------------------------
(12) DBI, connect(), prepare(), execute(), fetchrow_array()

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use DBI;

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:dbname", 'user','passwd', '')
or die "can't connect!\n";
my $sql = qq/show variables/;
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);
$sth->execute();

while(my @array=$sth->fetchrow_array())
{
printf("%-35s", $_) foreach(@array);
print "\n";
}
$dbh -> disconnect();
exit 0;

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(13) Getopt::Std

命令行参数解析。

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Getopt::Std;

my %opts;
getopts("c:hv", %opts);

foreach(keys %opts)
{
/c/ && print "welcome to ", $opts{$_} || "ChinaUnix", "!\n";
/h/ && print "Usage : $0 -[hv] -[c msg] \n";
/v/ && print "This is demo, version 0.001.001 built for $^O\n";
}
exit 0;

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(14) Proc::ProcessTable

#直接访问Unix进程表，类似ps command。

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Proc::ProcessTable;

my $pt = new Proc::ProcessTable;

foreach(reverse sort @{$pt->table})
{
print $_->pid, " => ";
print $_->cmndline, "\n";
}
exit 0;


--------------------------------------------------------------------
(15) Shell

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Shell;

print "now is : ", date();
print "current time is : ", date("+%T");

my @dirs = ls("-laF");
foreach(@dirs)
{
print if(//$/);#print directory
}
exit 0;

Shell命令直接做为函数，在Perl中调用。

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Another use of Time::HiRes Module.

(16) Time::HiRes, sleep(), time()

PHP代码:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Time::HiRes qw(sleep time);

$| = 1;
my $before = time;
for my $i (1..100)
{
print "$i\n";
sleep(0.01);
}
printf("time used : %.5f seconds\n", time - $before);
exit 0;


use Time::HiRes后，此模块提供sleep(), alarm(), time()的增强版以
取代perl内置的相应函数。
其中sleep()和alarm()的参数可以是小数。比如sleep(0.1)表示休眠0.1秒，
time()可以返回浮点数。
