DESCRIPTION:
------------

This module provides a Perl5 bindings for the SBML Library. It gives
access to almost all functions in libSBML. For more information about
SBML or libSBML, please visit http://sbml.org or contact the SBML Team
(mailto:sbml-team@caltech.edu).

The Perl5 wrapper is generated by processing the interface-file
LibSBML.i with SWIG v1.3.31 or higher (http://www.swig.org/).


COPYRIGHT:
----------

LGPL (the same as libSBML)


REQUIREMENTS:
-------------

   build, test, and install Perl 5
   build, test, and install Xerces-C++ XML Library
   build, test, (and install) libSBML


INSTALLATION:
------------

Just follow the usual procedure:
   
   perl Makefile.PL              (this creates Makefile-perl)
   make -f Makefile-perl
   make -f Makefile-perl test
   make -f Makefile-perl install

If you don't have permission to install a module into the
perl-directory-tree, you can alternatively install this module into
your home directory. First create an installation directory, e.g.
WHATSOEVER/Perl/L . To install this module into WHATSOEVER/Perl/L do
the following:

   perl Makefile.PL LIB=WHATSOEVER/Perl/L
   make -f Makefile-perl
   make -f Makefile-perl test
   make -f Makefile-perl install

You can use the perl command-line switch -I to prepend the locally
installed module to the search path for modules (perldoc perlrun).

If you want to re-swig the perl-bindings please do the following:

   make -f Makefile-perl clean
   rm LibSBML_wrap.cxx
   perl Makefile.PL
   make -f Makefile-perl
   make -f Makefile-perl test
   make -f Makefile-perl install


EXAMPLES:
---------

You can find useful examples in the test sub-directory (t/) or in the
examples/perl sub-directory of the libSBML distribution.


TODO:
-----

Extend the POD documentation for the LibSBML module.
Write more test cases.
