This talk will expand on the introductory version given at the first PerlSemNY of the season. It will cover details of a couple of the mon monitor scripts used to acquire data, data analysis, and data presentation techniques. Packet analysis with Perl, application profiling, and network stress testing will also be discussed. Martin Heinsdorf: "EPIC: The Eclipse IDE for Perl." The Eclipse IDE has been a mainstay for Java programmers for several years. It is stable, integrates well with CVS, and handles large projects with ease. Now it has a new plug-in called EPIC that adds many benefits for Perl programmers.

I would like to develop and test my cgi program at my PC (WIN98) before I upload it to my ISP server. I am having difficulty interfacing with my browser - MSIE5. When the call to the ActivePerl program is made from the browser, I get the "Save to disk or Open at current location" dialog box. Selecting "Open at location" opens a DOS window where the Perl program executes. I also cannot get the Perl program to accept %ENV from the browser (all elements are null) and cannot get the Perl program to output back to the browser (in other words: print ""; will cause "" to echo in the DOS window.) Any ideas as to what I get do to get this to work would be appreciated.

Selecting > "Open at location" opens a DOS window where the Perl program executes. In order to run the script as a CGI program, you need a web server on your machine. The webserver runs the script, not the web browser. So go to http://www.apache.org and download a Windows version. (I'm not sure if it works on Windows 98; you may need Windows NT/2000/XP.) Then get ahold of a CGI book, such as "CGI Programming with Perl" from O'Reilley publishers (http://perl.oreilly.com/). They've many other Perl books as well, such as Learning Perl on Windows. > I also cannot get the Perl program to accept %ENV from the browser (all > elements are null) and cannot get the Perl program to output back to the > browser (in other words: %ENV comes from the web server that runs the CGI script, not the browser.
