To install this package, change to the directory where you unarchived this distribution and type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install During the 'make test', there are some tests that take a while longer to run. While testing that caching is working, CPU times are being recorded on some badly written code to see that performance will actually be increased on subsequent visits. Don't panic. It may take a couple of minutes to run, depending on your system. If you do not have root access on your machine, then you may not have the ability to install this module in the standard perl library path. You may direct the installation into your own space, e.g., perl Makefile.PL LIB='/home/bseib/lib' or perhaps the entire installation, e.g., perl Makefile.PL PREFIX='/home/bseib' If you make the installation into your own directory, then remember that you must tell perl where to search for modules before trying to 'use' them. For example: use lib '/home/bseib/lib'; use CGI::Cache; The most current version of this module should be available at your favorite CPAN site, or may be retrieved from http://icd.cc.purdue.edu/~bseib/pub/CGI-Cache-X.XX.tar.gz Please let me know if you are using this module. Tell me what bugs you find or what can be done to improve it. Broc Seib, bseib@purdue.edu
