Perl prerequisites

This section describes the software version and modules required to operate Perl in Sybase CEP.

This chapter assumes that you have already installed Perl and are fluent in the language.

Perl Modules: Sybase CEP Perl adapters depend on the following CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) modules:

• URI::URL

• LWP::UserAgent

• Text::CSV

• SOAP::Lite

• XML::DOM

• XML::XPath

• Error
