HTTP::HeaderParser::XS
Perlbal::XS::HTTPHeaders

This module is a parser for HTTP headers, written in C++. It uses classes internally to provide a fast and easy to use interface to parsing, creating, and working with HTTP headers.

This module was originally designed for use in Perlbal, a software HTTP load balancer by Danga Interactive.

In order to use this module, you will need the Perl development libraries along with a C++ compiler and some random assorted things that convert XS files into C (etc). (Not sure if this is part of the Perl development libraries or not... but it should be pretty standard.)

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
