Newbie Question about P::C::S::IRC

Hi (and happy new year).

I'am trying to get familiar with POE programming for a few days now but still am
sometimes

- not to say: totally lost.

I picked the POE::Component::Server::IRC "fairly simple example" code.

All's fine, OK, I got my IRC server running.

What I want now is to be able to kick user as they join some channels from this
program.

I am a bit

about the daemon_cmd_kick and daemon_server_kick events and
how to "send" its to the main process.

I'm not sure where to place my "kick" order. I tried in sub _default with a
$poe_kernel->post() but, well, without success.

Does anyone have a example of that kind of call ?

Regards,

The 'daemon_server_*' commands are actually methods that are applied to the
POE::Component::Server::IRC object.

The 'daemon_cmd_*' commands are events, but they require a 'spoofed nickname', ie. an
IRC service, to work with, which must be created first.

In the examples/ folder of the PCSI distribution is a script called test-harness.pl
This has examples of the use of both 'daemon_server_*' methods and 'daemon_cmd_*' events.
