devel/p5-Devel-CallParser 0.002nb7 NetBSD

This module provides a C API, for XS modules, concerned with custom parsing. It is centred around the function cv_set_call_parser, which allows XS code to attach a magical annotation to a Perl subroutine, resulting in resolvable calls to that subroutine having their arguments parsed by arbitrary C code. (This is a more conveniently structured facility than the core's PL_keyword_plugin API.) This module makes cv_set_call_parser and several supporting functions available.

This module provides the implementation of the functions at runtime. It also, at compile time, supplies the C header file and link library which provide access to the functions. In normal use, "callparser0_h"/"callparser1_h" and "callparser_linkable" should be called at build time (not authoring time) for the module that wishes to use the C functions.
