I'm (again) trying to get a CPAN-style package that will build on a machine
without Inline. Following your recommendation, I've made these files, using
the outline from your prior email. I'm trying to understand what's actually
happening, rather than just trusting a cookbook approach, which I find isn't
maintainable even by me. So far, I'm pretty sure I'm missing some key
understanding(s). Your help would be very much appreciated.
More details:
I want Inline::CPP, not for the class parsing, but so that I can use C++
classes as part of my procedural C code. Perhaps a bit cheezy, but there it
is. Oh, one of those classes is Boost regex, among others.
I made a foo.cpp file that has a function SV *foo( const char *a, const char
*b, SV *c, const char *d ), which uses a foo.h file for other stuff. I'm
including this from my foo.pl by using a bit of fancy footwork so that when
I #include "$dirname/foo.cpp" gets the right file - this seems to work just
fine. I ran the script and grabbed the Makefile.PL and the '.xs' file -
there was no '.map' file.
I then started adjusting the Makefile.PL and the .xs file, and creating
MANIFEST, Foo.pm and test.pl:

],

};
WriteMakefile(%options);
# Remove the Makefile dependency. Causes problems on a few systems.

When I run make disttest, I get this:
/home/y/bin/perl -I/home/y/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-freebsd

Any recommendations?
