So what you're saying is that its a sin to have a facility that has been fully documented in perlguts.pod since 5.6.0, 12 years ago?

Fully documented?

perlnewmod
    |
    xs
    V
perlxs, perlxstut

Why would someone writing a simple XS wrapper for some Win32 api read perlguts and know to add this very important define?

h2xs ... doesn't write PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT

swig ... doesn't write PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT

Module-Starter-XSimple, dzil ... no mention of PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT

Calling this a sin and saying cpan authors (esp Win32) don't care, even if I insert the missing smiley, is rude balooney.

Trying to turn around , my merely sarcastic reply, back at me is troll excrement.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
