The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: PAR DSLIP: bdppp description: Perl Archive userid: AUTRIJUS (☺唐宗漢☻) chapterid: 3 (Development_Support) communities: magnet #perl, module-build
similar: rationale: PAR is like Java's Jar files; .par files contains a zip-compressed folder of a typical blib/ directory, and could be put into @INC, loaded and executed on the file, as well as turning into stand-alone scripts or executables (aka Perl2Exe or PerlApp). Its multi-platform support (by having different architecture directories inside the .par file, and loading XS files on the fly) makes it a powerful way to distribute Perl applications, as well as letting multiple versions of a same module to coexist on a system. I choose a rootlevel namespace because it is of the same level as DynaLoader.pm or B.pm -- i.e. it fundamentally alters how Perl processes its behaviour in a pragma-like sense, but is also useful as a stand-alone module.
