If you don't actually have the GeoIP database installed, make test will fail, and the resulting output will look something like this. The point is that it's possible to write Perl modules in C, which means that you can use the module like any other Perl module via "use", but it's actually implemented in C, and most often through the interface of XS. If the latter has been compiled, List:: The categorization itself is not useful because of its source, and the same categorization would be useful in META. Spec or even, on Windows, Win This definition, which is closer to your guess, still allows for "use" directives - as long as what you're using comes with perl itself, such as File:: There are often threads on PM and other perl code-related sites that make reference to "pure perl", yet I've not been able to find an actual definition of pure perl.

An example of such a platform is Solaris, since Sun wants big bucks for the native compiler.

Purelerl perl is vastly preferred. Essentially a script that does not reference add-on packages via "use" directives. So instead I needed to do it manually.

I think the current statistics are something like less than one in three distributions. The motivations for this are that you can do nasty low-level system things in C; and that some things are faster.

What defines "Pure Perl"?

This definition has annoyed mebut I thought it worth pointing out. Is this reasonably on target, or have I completely misunderstood the concept of pure perl? Util is supposed to be faster. If the latter has been compiled, List:: Replies are listed 'Best First'.

I understand now that a Pure Perl module is one that doesn't purpeerl a C compiler resident on the system in order to be able to install it, and a Pure Perl solution is one that does not include any references pureperll other modules that are not themselves Pure Perl. I've updated the files in the command line examples below to the current versions as at the time of this update.
