ActivePerl with ASP and ADO - Tobias Martinsson

"Everything you will need in one book for ASP and ADO programming with Perl and PerlScript. A must–have for every Perl developer's library."––Douglas Lankshear, Senior Developer, ActiveState Tool Corporation

This powerful book/CD package gets you up to speed on all of ActivePerl's features in no time. Tobias Martinsson introduces the tools included in ActivePerl and walks you through installationand configuration, then gives you an overview of the syntax, variables, functions, control structures, and regular expressions of Perl and PerlScript. Chapters on ASP and ADO demystify the jargon, com–ponents, and concepts behind the technologies, and then focus on the objects and functionalities they can add to your programs. Extensive code examples teach you how and where to use the objects, events that trigger them, and how to program with optimal performance in mind. And as a valuable reference, the author provides detailed tables on each object and its associated task options throughout the book to help you harness the full power of ASP and ADO.
