Also created, is the file 'INLINE.h' - but only if that +file is needed. The generated xs file (and INLINE.h) will be written +to the cwd unless a third argument (specifying a valid directory) is +provided to the c2xs() function. + +The created XS file, when packaged with the '.pm' file, an +appropriate 'Makefile.PL', and 'INLINE.h' (if it's needed), +can be used to build the module in the usual way - without +any dependence upon the Inline::C module. + +WWW: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Inline-C2XS/ |
