说明：  Given Perl s natural fit for web applications development, it s no surprise that Perl is also a natural choice for web services development. It s the most popular web programming language, with strong implementations of both SOAP and XML-RPC, the leading ways to distribute applications using web services. But books on web services focus on writing these applications in Java or Visual Basic, leaving Perl programmers with few resources to get them started. "Programming Web Services with Perl" changes that, bringing Perl users all the information they need to create web services using their favorite language.
