The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: IO::Transceiver
DSLIP: adpOa
description: Object interface to client/server socket IO
userid: WILSOND (Dusty Wilson)
chapterid: 21 (File_Handle_Input_Output)
communities:
Has been discussed at #hey.nu on irc.hey.nu, plans to add a
discussion board - URL unknown.
similar:
IO::NonBlocking IO::Multiplex
rationale:
A 'transceiver' is a transmitter and receiver in one package. A CB
radio would be a good example, as would a cellular telephone. This
name was chosen because the module does just that, allows
communication as both a client and a server.
This module was originally named "hey::Transponder", but the root
namespace "hey" is obviously inappropriate for contribution and the
term "Transponder" shows too strict of specialization of
communication. The module makes IO::Socket objects, leaving open
quite a few possibilities for communication.
The purpose of the module itself is to allow easy creation of
non-blocking, multiplexing servers and clients through an object
interface. The programmer would create the new client or server and
assign a callback function to this new client or server connection.
The programmer using this code would not need to deal with the
network wiring to make use of multiple clients and servers in their
code.
