DESCRIPTION
       Test::POE::Client::TCP is a POE component that provides a TCP client
       framework for inclusion in client component test cases, instead of
       having to roll your own.

       Once registered with the component, a session will receive events
       related to connections made, disconnects, flushed output and input from
       the specified server.

CONSTRUCTOR
       "spawn"
	   Takes a number of optional arguments:

	     'alias', set an alias on the component;
	     'address', the remote address to connect to;
	     'port', the remote port to connect to;
	     'options', a hashref of POE::Session options;
	     'filter', specify a POE::Filter to use for client connections, default is POE::Filter::Line;
	     'inputfilter', specify a POE::Filter for client input;
	     'outputfilter', specify a POE::Filter for output to clients;
	     'localaddr', specify that connections be made from a particular local address;
	     'localport', specify that connections be made from a particular port;
	     'autoconnect', set to a true value to make the poco connect immediately;
	     'prefix', specify an event prefix other than the default of 'testc';

	   The semantics for "filter", "inputfilter" and "outputfilter" are
	   the same as for POE::Component::Server::TCP in that one may provide
	   either a "SCALAR", "ARRAYREF" or an "OBJECT".

	   If the component is "spawn"ed within another session it will
	   automatically "register" the parent session to receive "all"
	   events.

	   "address" and "port" are optional within "spawn", but if they
	   aren't specified they must be provided to subsequent "connect"s. If
	   "autoconnect" is specified, "address" and "port" must also be
	   defined.

METHODS
       "connect"
	   Initiates a connection to the given server. Takes a number of
	   parameters:

	     'address', the remote address to connect to;
	     'port', the remote port to connect to;
	     'localaddr', specify that connections be made from a particular local address, optional;
	     'localport', specify that connections be made from a particular port, optional;

	   "address" and "port" are optional if they have been already
	   specified during "spawn".

       "session_id"
	   Returns the POE::Session ID of the component.

       "shutdown"
	   Terminates the component. It will terminate any pending connects or
	   connections.

       "server_info"
	   Retrieves socket information about the current connection. In a
	   list context it returns a list consisting of, in order, the server
	   address, the server TCP port, our address and our TCP port. In a
	   scalar context it returns a HASHREF with the following keys:

	     'peeraddr', the server address;
	     'peerport', the server TCP port;
	     'sockaddr', our address;
	     'sockport', our TCP port;

       "send_to_server"
	   Send some output to the connected server. The first parameter is a
	   string of text to send. This parameter may also be an arrayref of
	   items to send to the client. If the filter you have used requires
	   an arrayref as input, nest that arrayref within another arrayref.

       "disconnect"
	   Places the server connection into pending disconnect state. Set
	   this, then send an applicable message to the server using
	   "send_to_server()" and the server connection will be terminated.

       "terminate"
	   Immediately disconnects a server conenction.

       "wheel"
	   Returns the underlying POE::Wheel::ReadWrite object if we are
	   currently connected to a server, "undef" otherwise.	You can use
	   this method to call methods on the wheel object to switch filters,
	   etc. Exercise caution.

       "alias"
	   Returns the currently configured alias.

INPUT EVENTS
       These are events that the component will accept:

       "register"
	   Takes N arguments: a list of event names that your session wants to
	   listen for, minus the 'testc_' prefix.

	   Registering for 'all' will cause it to send all TESTC-related
	   events to you; this is the easiest way to handle it.

       "unregister"
	   Takes N arguments: a list of event names which you don't want to
	   receive. If you've previously done a 'register' for a particular
	   event which you no longer care about, this event will tell the poco
	   to stop sending them to you. (If you haven't, it just ignores you.
	   No big deal).

       "connect"
	   Initiates a connection to the given server. Takes a number of
	   parameters:

	     'address', the remote address to connect to;
	     'port', the remote port to connect to;
	     'localaddr', specify that connections be made from a particular local address, optional;
	     'localport', specify that connections be made from a particular port, optional;

	   "address" and "port" are optional if they have been already
	   specified during "spawn".

       "shutdown"
	   Terminates the component. It will terminate any pending connects or
	   connections.

       "send_to_server"
	   Send some output to the connected server. The first parameter is a
	   string of text to send. This parameter may also be an arrayref of
	   items to send to the client. If the filter you have used requires
	   an arrayref as input, nest that arrayref within another arrayref.

       "disconnect"
	   Places the server connection into pending disconnect state. Set
	   this, then send an applicable message to the server using
	   "send_to_server()" and the server connection will be terminated.

       "terminate"
	   Immediately disconnects a server conenction.

OUTPUT EVENTS
       The component sends the following events to registered sessions. If you
       have changed the "prefix" option in "spawn" then substitute "testc"
       with the event prefix that you specified.

       "testc_registered"
	   This event is sent to a registering session. ARG0 is the
	   Test::POE::Client::TCP object.

       "testc_socket_failed"
	   Generated if the component cannot make a socket connection.	ARG0
	   contains the name of the operation that failed.  ARG1 and ARG2 hold
	   numeric and string values for $!, respectively.

       "testc_connected"
	   Generated whenever a connection is established. ARG0 is the
	   server's IP address, ARG1 is the server's TCP port.	ARG3 is our IP
	   address and ARG4 is our socket port.

       "testc_disconnected"
	   Generated whenever we disconnect from the server.

       "testc_input"
	   Generated whenever the server sends us some traffic. ARG0 is the
	   data sent ( tokenised by whatever POE::Filter you specified ).

       "testc_flushed"
	   Generated whenever anything we send to the server is actually
	   flushed down the 'line'.
