Hi there.
I am almost new to Perl. I like it and tried to use it in some of my
Cocoa Projects.
First of all. I found there are two approaches. PerlObjCBridge and
CamelBones. Unfortunately I couldn't find any examples covering what I
try to do. I tested it with CamelBones first. Maybe someone can tell me
whether this would be possible with PerlObjCBridge, too.
I played a bit and that's what I figured so far. But unfortunately
I wasn't successfull in creating a CBPerlObject. I tried it from a
Foundation Project.
<objc_code>
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <CamelBones/CamelBones.h>
int main (int argc, const char * argv[])
{
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
// create perl interpreter
CBPerl *perl = [[CBPerl alloc] init];
//[perl useWarnings]; // activate warnings
//[perl useLib:modulePath];
[perl useModule:@"SomePerl"];
[perl eval:@"$somePerl = new SomePerl"];
CBPerlObject *perlO = [perl namedObject:@"somePerl"];
[pool release];
return 0;
}
</objc_code>
The SomePerl.pm file looks like this:
<perl_code>
package SomePerl;
use strict;
use warnings;
sub new
{
my $class = shift;
my %attr = @_;
my $self = { %attr };
return bless ($self,$class);
}
1;
__END__
</perl_code>
What I don't understand is, where do I have to put the SomePerl.pm file
so that code above finds it. I guess it can be somewhere but then I have
to explicitly say so by calling [perl useLib:<pathOfPMFile>], right?
The -namedObject: returns a nil pointer, so something ggoes wrong there,
but I couldn't figure out what.
Can someone please give me some hints?
Thx,
Manfred
