What do you mean by "convert them to Perl"? XS is essentially a bunch of `extern C` bindings for your code. By the time your template using source has been compiled and linked the templates have vanished and there is nothing template related for the Perl side code to know about. True laziness is hard work	[reply] [d/l]

Hi, What I was talking about is the generic function/class support in XS? It somehow gives me a lot of error when compiled.	[reply]

Were you using a C++ compiler? Actually, judging by the questions you are asking I suspect you are trying to run before you can roll over. Have you worked through the perlxstut successfully? Note: asking "Is it possible" will get different answers than "How do I" or "I have this problem ...". True laziness is hard work	[reply]

No such thing as a small change
