Net::Z3950::AsyncZ adds an additional layer of asynchronous support for
|
||
the Z3950 module through the use of multiple forked processes. I hope that
|
||
users will also find that it provides a convenient front end to
|
||
"Net::Z3950". My initial idea was to write something that would provide a
|
||
convenient means of processing and formatting Z39.50 records--which I did,
|
||
using the "Z3950" synchronous code. But I also wanted something that could
|
||
handle queries to large numbers of servers at one session. Working on this
|
||
part of my project, I found that I had trouble with the "Z3950"
|
||
asynchronous features and so ended up with what I have here.
|
||
|
||
I give a more detailed account in in the [m[38;2;255;255;255m[48;2;0;0;0m[1mDESCRIPTION[m[38;2;255;255;255m[48;2;0;0;0m section of

AsyncZ.pod
|
||
This is the starting point--it gives an overview of the AsyncZ module,
|
||
describes the basic mechanics of its asynchronous workings, and
|
||
details the particulars of the objects and methods. But see
|
||
""Examples.pod" for detailed explanations of the sample scripts which
|
||
come with the "Net::Z3950::AsyncZ" distribution.
|
||
|
||
Options.pod
|
||
This document details the various options that can be set to modify
|
||
the behavior of AsyncZ Index
|
||
|
||
Report.pod
|
||
Report.pod deals with how records are treated line by line and how you
|
||
can affect the apearance of a record's line by line output
|
||
|
||
Examples.pod
|
||
This document goes through the sample scripts that come with the
|
||
"Net::Z3950::AsyncZ" distribution and annotates them in a line-by-line
|
||
fashion. It's a basic HOW-TO.

|

There are more modules than there is documentation. The reason for this is
|
||
that the only module you have full and complete access to is
|
||
"Net::Z3950::AsyncZ". The other modules are either internal to
|
||
"Net::AsyncZ" or accessed indirectly or in part indirectly.
|
||
|
||
Here are the modules:
|
||
Net::Z3950::AsyncZ
