3. Information about the perl-Net-XMPP package on openSUSE Leap

Information for package perl-Net-XMPP:
--------------------------------------
Repository : Main Repository
Name : perl-Net-XMPP
Version : 1.05-bp155.2.8
Arch : noarch
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 378.7 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : perl-Net-XMPP-1.05-bp155.2.8.src
Upstream URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-XMPP/
Summary : XMPP Perl Library
Description :
Net::XMPP is a convenient tool to use for any perl script that would like
to utilize the XMPP Instant Messaging protocol. While not a client in and
of itself, it provides all of the necessary back-end functions to make a
CGI client or command-line perl client feasible and easy to use. Net::XMPP
is a wrapper around the rest of the official Net::XMPP::xxxxxx packages.
There is are example scripts in the example directory that provide you with
examples of very simple XMPP programs.
NOTE: The parser that the XML::Stream::Parser manpage provides, as are most
Perl parsers, is synchronous. If you are in the middle of parsing a packet
and call a user defined callback, the Parser is blocked until your callback
finishes. This means you cannot be operating on a packet, send out another
packet and wait for a response to that packet. It will never get to you.
Threading might solve this, but as of this writing threading in Perl is not
quite up to par yet. This issue will be revisted in the future.
