[geos-devel] perl bindings for geos (Geo::Geos)

2019-08-14 Thread Ivan Baidakou
Hello, We (i.e. crazy-panda.ru) are glad to announce perl bindings for geos [1]. The bindings are done for C++ geos interface, and mostly maches 1 to 1, when it is possible to keep API "perlish", i.e. not to crash due to dangling reference. The bindings where successfully tested for Linux
