INSTALLATION

WWW::WCAP uses the following modules/distributions.

        LWP::UserAgent   - required (for communicating WCAP with server)
        Date::Calc       - required (for parsing calendar entries)
        Benchmark::Timer - optional (for tests)

First ensure the above modules/distributions are installed (perhaps by using a command such as 'perl -e "use LWP::UserAgent; use \ Date::Calc; use Benchmark::Timer;"') then build/test/install WWW::WCAP by doing:

            perl Makefile.PL
            make
            make test
            make install

This module contains documentation on the object and its methods. Once installed you can use the 'perldoc WWW::WCAP' command to obtain the documentation. This package also includes several test scripts with example code.

This module was developed on Mac OS X 10.2.6, and has been tested on Red Hat (v8) Linux (kernel 2.4)

TODO

Change to an object rather than procedural calls Support all WCAP functions Synchronise with other calendar servers and clients (e.g. CS&T, Sunbird (Mozilla calendar), OS X iCal).
