Language::XS adcO create c/xs code on the fly, witgout a Makefile
MLEHMANN
This module allows one to create c functions "on the fly", compile them
and use them from perl. This is useful for programs that want to create C
code (e.g. for speed) that needs to be tailored at runtime of a program (PDL
requires this).
While it's not a XS or C Interpreter, it is some kind of "xs language
interface", so I guess the name makes sense.
For added discussion benefit, here is a usage exmaple:
# create a Language::XS-object
my $xs = new Language::XS cachedir => undef;
# add plain C to the header
$xs->hdr("#include <stdio.h>");
# add a c function (not directly xs syntax)
$xs->cfun('printf ("I was called with %d arguments\n", items');
# now compile and find the code-reference
my $coderef = $xs->find;
# Now call it
$coderef->(1, "Zwei", 1/3);
