Inline-API 0.44

Inline-API is a Perl module that teach you how to bind a programming language to Perl using Inline.pm. SYNOPSIS #!/usr/bin/perl use Inline Foo; say_it(foo); # Use Foo to print "Hello, Foo" __Foo__ foo-sub say_it { foo-my $foo = foo-shift; foo-print "Hello, $foon"; } So you think Inline C is pretty cool, but what you really need is for Perl to work with the brand new programming language "Foo". Well youre in luck. Inline.pm has support for adding your own Inline Language Support Module (ILSM), like Inline::Foo. Inline has always been intended to work with lots of different programming languages. Many of the details can be shared between implementations, so that Inline::Java has a similar interface to Inline::ASM. All of the common code is in Inline.pm. Language specific modules like Inline::Python are subclasses of Inline.pm. They can inherit as much of the common behaviour as they want, and provide specific behaviour of their own. This usually comes in the form of Configuration Options and language specific compilation. The Inline C support is probably the best boilerplate to copy from. Since version 0.30 all C support was isolated into the module Inline::C and the parsing grammar is further broken out into Inline::C::grammar. All of these components come with the Inline distribution. This POD gives you all the details you need for implementing an ILSM. For further assistance, contact inline@perl.org See "SEE ALSO" below. Well examine the joke language Inline::Foo which is distributed with Inline. It actually is a full functioning ILSM. I use it in Inlines test harness to test base Inline functionality. It is very short, and can help you get your head wrapped around the Inline API..
