XS is of course very comprehensive and well established, but carries a
steep
learning curve, so they say.
Inline::C and XS are essentially the same. Inline::C just autogenerates the
XS file for you - so its learning curve is less steep only in that you don't
actually have to learn how to write an XS file.
Either way, there's still the same steepness involved in becoming acquainted
with the perl API.
My Math::MPFR module actually uses an XS file that Inline::C generated. (My
sole purpose in doing that was to remove the module's dependency upon
Inline::C.)
Eric Wilhelm's Math::Geometry::Planar::GPC::Polygon is one example of a
module that uses Inline::C fairly extensively. Not sure if that's the best
example there is. (Eric, who is subscribed here, might be able to provide a
better example.)
Any good Inline::C examples?
Check out 'perldoc Inline::C-Cookbook' if you haven't already done so.
Cheers,
Rob
