POE (1.280)

An indispensable module for event-driven programming.
It makes it easy to write state-transition driven networking code and is bullet-proof and very lightweight in memory and CPU terms.
I've run it on Unix, Windows, and even on a horrible system using ActiveState Perl under Windows XP Embedded on micro hardware with Flash memory.
Excellent module.

POE (1.268)

POE is THE module you must use for event programming.
The code is of great quality with an extended test suite, and it works on all platforms I have access to (Linux, Win32, HP-UX).
The support is of first class quality: bugs are quickly fixed and new release occur often.
Many plugins are available to handle any kind of events you may imagine.

POE (1.003)

The concerns I voiced about the documentation in my earlier review should be ignored - it was several years ago and the documentation has been completely rewritten.

The most useful Perl module distribution I've had the pleasure to use. Very neat stuff.

POE is excellent for writing daemon processes in perl. It is a bit of a departure from writing standard perl code, hence my 3 rating for ease of use, but the documentation does a pretty good job in clearing it up. Once you get used to the module interfaces, and the POE capabilities, writing cooperative multithreaded applications becomes a piece of cake.

POE - good idea!
But implementation isn't good :)

POE is the best tool to operate with state machines.

I love POE. I gave it a relatively low 'Easy of Use' rating because it really isn't that easy to use, I dont think. But its such a beautiful framework, and I love how it turns my flowcharts into flowcode :) I wish everything was written using POE, it would make life easier I think...Just think...POE mod_perl...yummm..

POE is an excellent tool for building network applications. It's power and flexibility allow one to accomplish tasks quickly and easily. Truly one of CPAN's gems.

POE is awesome!

It's everything I've needed and it's very easy to use.
Take a look at the cookbook on http://poe.perl.org/ and see for yourself.

I'm a little biased, but POE rocks. Its the R in RAD. POE allows me to whip out applications and new frameworks in record time. There is also a great community surrounding POE which is full of ideas, heckels, and fun acronyms. :)
