You can serialize/deserilize object with Storable $foo = new Bar store_fd $foo, \*SOCKET; and on the other end $foo = retrieve_fd \*SOCKET; $foo-bar; It will work if you have Bar module on both ends. DS Right, but I want it to work if you don't... Then maybe SOAP::Lite? SOAP

Minimalistic Perl 6 Language

Hey, all. This whole discussion on using . instead of - made me think a lot about the Perl 6 language. Actually, this was the more recent of many religious wars happening on perl6-language about choosing this or that way of doing something. I remember many others like using my or using dynamic

sandboxing

2001-05-03 Thread David L. Nicol
In all the discussion of customizing the parser, let us not forget that we also need to be able to limit the parser. The Penguin module offers one interface for doing that. But the larger question remains, is sandboxing something a language should support at all, or is it best left to the OS

The biggest problem I have with sandboxing is that to do it right is apparently difficult, judging by the number of people that get it wrong. We need to rope in a security expert, I think, for the design. I don't suppose we have one in the house somewhere? Where have you gone, Malcolm

It also reminds me of mjd's mention of: my($first) = sort {...} @list; being O(n) if Perl were really Lazy. But it would need a completely different algorithm. Which is not too bad. And even my ($first, $second, $third) = sort {...} @list; is kind-of plausible. So we'd
