Title: Win32 Perl Programming: The Standard Extensions (2nd Edition) by Dave Roth ISBN: 1-57870-216-X Publisher: SAMS Pub. Date: 10 September, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $50.00 |

Summary: A Necessary Addition to the Win32 Bookshelf
Comment: While other readers point out some errors in the book, I base my 5 star rating on this simple fact-- If you are programming Perl on Win32, you need this book.
You will find information in this book that does not exist anywhere else. After reading this book, you will find yourself using Perl to do things on your NT box you wouldn't have considered possible with a scripting language.
Mr. Roth provides many code samples, and sufficient background in the text. The information on ODBC, Pipes, and Sockets is worth the price of admission alone.
While not without flaws, an invaluable resource for the serious Win32 Perl programmer.

Summary: This is the rest of the story
Comment: This book has cleared up a lot of mysteries about Win32 specific topics. Made using Win32 extensions easy. Great examples. Just be aware that this cannot be your only PERL book on the shelf. This is about interfacing with the Win32 platform, not really about how to program in PERL. You'll also need a more general PERL programming book such as "PERL by Example", if you're just starting out. I've got both and am constantly bouncing between them.
Rating: 5
Summary: Simply the best book for the Win32 Libraries
Comment: Win32 Perl Programming: The Standard Extensions is, without question, the best scripting book I have ever owned. It has a partner book, "Win32 Perl Scripting: The Administrators Handbook" and between the 2 of them I can pretty well complete any task I need to using Perl. Some of the modules have been slightly updated since the 2nd edition, but a quick look at cpan will solve any of those rare situations. I cannot recommend this book enough if your a Windows Administrator and have ever wondered if Perl could be benifical to your evironment.
