Re: XS Library - Embedding C code in Perl

[talexb]

The stock answer for this question is "Use Inline::C instead". Having never used either, I can't base my recommendation on any experience .. just on what I've heard.

I would concur with the comments of talexb above - I have found Inline::C to make incorporating C and Perl code together incredibly easy.

The only thing which I would add to talexb's post is a few links for further information:

• the Inline C Cookbook,
• the Inline C Reference, and
• the Inline home.

 

perl -e 'print+unpack("N",pack("B32","00000000000000000000000111011110")),"\n"'

Apropos Inline::C: there's a good intro tutorial on <www.perl.com>: "Pathologically Polluting Perl".
