Your first step should be figuring out how to do it in plain C. You can then make the transition to C++ which is fairly smooth from an XS point-of-view. A few weeks ago I wrapped parts of std::vector into an XS class just to see whether there are any significant differences from using C. It turned out that the C++/XS combo is very convenient and offers some nice shortcuts. I still have these preliminary experiments lying around and could post or send them off-list.
