That should work for XS code itself, but h2xs may be upset. (Personally I never use h2xs - I always write XS by hand...) How about using a typedef instead of a #define #if HAS_LONG_LONG typedef long long LLONG; #else typedef i64 LLONG; #endif Have you #include-d the header in the .xs file? When you say you "get a parse error" from what? xsubpp, or C compiler or perl? or "h2xs"? >I was able to get it to compile by >changing the LLONG to "long long", but I want to use the #define >since it is different for our different arch.
