The ResourcePool is a generic connection caching and pooling management
facility. It might be used in an Apache/mod_perl environment to support
connection caching like Apache::DBI for non-DBI resources
(e.g. Net::LDAP). It's also useful in a stand alone perl application
to handle connection pools.
The key benefit of ResourcePool is the generic design which makes it
easily extensible to new resource types.
The ResourcePool has a simple check mechanism to detect and close broken
connections (e.g. if the database server was restarted) and opens new
connections if possible.
If you are new to ResourcePool you should go to the ResourcePool::BigPicture
documentation which provides the best entry point to this module.
The ResourcePool itself handles always exactly equivalent connections
(e.g. connections to the same server with the same user-name and password)
and is therefore not able to do a load balancing. The
ResourcePool::LoadBalancer is able to do a advanced load balancing across
different servers and increases the overall availability by applying a
failover policy if there is a server breakdown.
From this version 1.0000 on, the p5-ResourcePool package will not contain
resource bindings anymore. The previously included bindings for
DBI and Net::LDAP are available in the databases/p5-ResourcePool-Resource-DBI
and net/p5-ResourcePool-Resource-Net-LDAP ports.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

- Replace ../../authors in MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR with CPAN:CPANID macro.
See http://wiki.freebsd.org/Perl for details.
- Change maintainership from ports@ to perl@ for ports in this changeset.
With perl@ hat
- Take advantage of CPAN macro from bsd.sites.mk, change
${MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN} to CPAN.
