This library has been tested by the author with Perl versions 5.00503, 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.7.1 and 5.7.2 on Windows 98/2K and Linux 2.2. Should run everywhere where Perl 5.004 or later runs.

Some modules within this package depend on other packages that are distributed separately from Perl. You should have the following distributions installed before you start to use SOAP::Lite:

XML::Parser

You may not follow this requirement as soon as you have XML::Parser::Lite (included), which will run automatically on Perl 5.00503 and later if XML::Parser is not available.

Following modules will be loaded on demand only:

MIME::Base64

URI (for HTTP transport and autodispatch)

HTTP::Daemon [libwww-perl] (for daemon server implementation)
