NAME

       Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM - Gateway between Z39.50 and SRU/SRW

SYNOPSIS

	use Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM;
	$s2z = new Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM("somefile.xml");
	$s2z->launch_server("someServer", @ARGV);

DESCRIPTION

       The "Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM" module provides all the application logic of a generic "Swiss Army Gateway" between Z39.50 and SRU.  It is
       used by the "simple2zoom" program, and there is probably no good reason to make any other program to use it.  For that reason, this
       library-level documentation is more than usually terse.

       The library has only two public entry points: the "new()" constructor and the "launch_server()" method.	The synopsis above shows how they
       are used: a Simple2ZOOM object is created using "new()", then the "launch_server()" method is invoked on it to -- get ready for a big
       surprise here -- launch the server.  (In fact, this synopsis is essentially the whole of the code of the "simple2zoom" program.	All the
       work happens inside the library.)

METHODS

   new($configFile)
	$s2z = new Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM("somefile.xml");

       Creates and returns a new Simple2ZOOM object, configured according to the XML file $configFile that is the only argument.  The format of
       this file is described in "Net::Z3950::Simple2ZOOM::Config".

   launch_server($label, @ARGV)
	$s2z->launch_server("someServer", @ARGV);

       Launches the Simple2ZOOM server: this method never returns.  The $label string is used in logging, and the @ARGV vector of command-line
       arguments is interpreted by the YAZ backend server as described at http://www.indexdata.dk/yaz/doc/server.invocation.tkl

NAME

       Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem - File object used internally by Net::Hotline::Client

SYNOPSIS

	   use Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem;

	   $file = new Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem;

	   $file->address("hotline.foo.com");
	   $file->port(5500);
	   ...

DESCRIPTION

       Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem is a simple class for storing and retrieving tracked server information,  You should never have to create
       your own Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem objects when using Net::Hotline::Client.	Getting and (to a lesser extent) setting attributes is all
       that should be necessary.

CONSTRUCTION

       new ADDRESS, PORT, NUM_USERS, NAME, DESCRIPTION
	   With exactly five arguments, creates a new Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem object with all attributes set.  With no arguments, creates a
	   new Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem object with all attributes set to undef.

METHODS

       All the Net::Hotline::TrackerListItem methods are simple attribute get/set routines.  If given an argument, they set an attribute.  In all
       cases, they return the current value of the attribute.

       address TEXT
	   The IP address of the server.

       port NUM
	   The port the server is running on.

       num_users NUM
	   The (claimed) number of users connected to the server.

       name TEXT
	   The server name, as set by the server administrator (i.e. "Ambrosia Software" or "Myth Central")

       description TEXT
	   The server description, as set by the server administrator.
