=head1 NAME

InlineX::C2XS - Convert from Inline C code to XS.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #USAGE:
 #c2xs($module_name, $package_name [, $build_dir] [, $config_opts])

  use InlineX::C2XS qw(c2xs);

  my $module_name = 'MY::XS_MOD';
  my $package_name = 'MY::XS_MOD';

  # $build_dir is an optional third arg.
  # If omitted it defaults to '.' (the cwd).
  my $build_dir = '/some/where/else';

  # $config_opts is an optional fourth arg (hash reference)
  # See the "Recognised Hash Keys" section below.
  my $config_opts = {'WRITE_PM' => 1,
                     'WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL' => 1,
                     'VERSION' => 0.42,
                    };

  # Create /some/where/else/XS_MOD.xs from ./src/XS_MOD.c
  c2xs($module_name, $package_name, $build_dir);

  # Alternatively create XS_MOD.xs in the cwd:
  c2xs($module_name, $package_name);

  # Or Create /some/where/else/XS_MOD.xs from $code
  $code = 'void foo() {printf("Hello World\n");}' . "\n\n";
  c2xs($module_name, $package_name, $build_dir, {CODE => $code});

  # Or Create /some/where/else/XS_MOD.xs from the C code that's in
  # ./otherplace/otherfile.ext
  $loc = './otherplace/otherfile.ext';
  c2xs($module_name, $package_name, $build_dir, {SRC_LOCATION => $loc});

  The optional final arg (a reference to a hash) is to enable the
  passing of additional information and configuration options that
  Inline may need - and also to enable the creation of the
  Makefile.PL and .pm file (if desired).
  See the "Recognised Hash Keys" section below for a list of the
  accepted keys (and explanation of their usage).

  # Create XS_MOD.xs in the cwd, and also generate the Makefile.PL
  # and XS_MOD.pm:
  c2xs($module_name, $package_name, $config_opts);

  NOTE: If you wish to supply the $config_opts argument, but not the
  $build_dir argument then you simply omit the $build_dir argument.
  That is, the following are equivalent:
   c2xs($module_name, $package_name, '.', $config_opts);
   c2xs($module_name, $package_name, $config_opts);
  If a third argument is given, it's deemed to be the build directory
  unless it's a hash reference (in which case it's deemed to be the
  hash reference containing the additional config options).

  As of version 0.19, a c2xs utility is also provided. It's just an
  Inline::C2XS wrapper - see 'c2xs --help'.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

 Don't feed an actual Inline::C script to this module - it won't
 be able to parse it. It is capable of parsing correctly only
 that C code that is suitable for inclusion in an Inline::C
 script.

 For example, here is a simple Inline::C script:

  use warnings;
  use Inline C => Config =>
      BUILD_NOISY => 1,
      CLEAN_AFTER_BUILD => 0;
  use Inline C => <<'EOC';
  #include <stdio.h>

  void greet() {
      printf("Hello world\n");
  }
  EOC

  greet();
  __END__

 The C code that InlineX::C2XS needs to find would contain only that code
 that's between the opening 'EOC' and the closing 'EOC' - namely:

  #include <stdio.h>

  void greet() {
      printf("Hello world\n");
  }

 If the C code is not provided by either the CODE or SRC_LOCATION keys,
 InlineX::C2XS looks for the C source file in ./src directory - expecting
 that the filename will be the same as what appears after the final '::'
 in the module name (with a '.c' extension). ie if your module is
 called My::Next::Mod the c2xs() function looks for a file ./src/Mod.c, 
 and creates a file named Mod.xs. Also created by the c2xs function, is
 the file 'INLINE.h' - but only if that file is needed. The generated 
 xs file (and any other generated files will be written to the cwd unless
 the third argument supplied to c2xs() is a string specifying a valid 
 directory - in which case the generated files(s) will be written to that
 directory.

 The created XS file, when packaged with the '.pm' file (which can be 
 auto-generated by setting the WRITE_PM configuration key), an
 appropriate 'Makefile.PL' (which can also be auto-generated by setting
 the WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL hash key), and 'INLINE.h' (if it's needed), can be 
 used to build the module in the usual way - without any dependence
 upon the Inline::C module.

=head1 Recognised Hash Keys

 As regards the optional fourth argument to c2xs(), the following hash
 keys/values are recognised:

  AUTO_INCLUDE
   The value specified is automatically inserted into the generated XS
   file. (Also, the specified include will be parsed and used iff 
   AUTOWRAP is set to a true value.) eg:

    AUTO_INCLUDE => '#include <my_header.h>',
  ----

  AUTOWRAP
   Set this to a true value to enable Inline::C's AUTOWRAP capability.
   eg:

    AUTOWRAP => 1,
  ----

 BOOT
   Specifies C code to be executed in the XS BOOT section. Corresponds
   to the XS parameter. eg:

    BOOT => 'printf("Hello .. from bootstrap\n");',
  ----

 BOOT_F
   Specifies a file containing C code to be executed in the XS BOOT
   section. 
   eg:

    BOOT_F => '/home/me/boot_code.ext',
  ----

  BUILD_NOISY
   Is set to a true value, by default. Setting to a false value will
   mean that progress messages generated by Inline::C are suppressed. eg:

    BUILD_NOISY => 0,
  ----

  CC
   Specify the compiler you want to use. It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    CC => 'g++',
  ----

  CCFLAGS
   Specify which compiler flags to use. (Existing value gets clobbered, so
   you'll probably want to re-specify it.) It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    CCFLAGS => $Config{ccflags} . ' -DMY_DEFINE',
  ----

  CCFLAGSEX
   Add compiler flags to existing flags.
   It makes sense to assign this key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to
   a true value. eg:

    CCFLAGSEX => '-DMY_DEFINE ',
  ----

  CODE
   A string containing the C code. eg:

    CODE => 'void foo() {printf("Hello World\n";}' . "\n\n",
  ----

  DIST

   If set, sets WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL => 1, WRITE_PM => 1, MANIF => 1. eg:

    DIST => 1,
  ----

  EXPORT_ALL
   Makes no sense to use this unless WRITE_PM has been set.
   Places all XSubs except those beginning with a *single* underscore (but not
   multiple underscores) in @EXPORT in the generated .pm file. eg:

    EXPORT_ALL => 1,
  ----

  EXPORT_OK_ALL
   Makes no sense to use this unless WRITE_PM has been set.
   Places all XSubs except those beginning with a *single* underscore (but not
   multiple underscores) in @EXPORT_OK in the generated .pm file. eg:

    EXPORT_OK_ALL => 1,
  ----

  EXPORT_TAGS_ALL
   Makes no sense to use this unless WRITE_PM has been set.
   In the generated .pm file, creates an EXPORT_TAGS tag named 'name'
   (where 'name' is whatever you have specified), and places all XSubs except
   those beginning with a *single* underscore (but not multiple underscores)
   in 'name'. eg, the following creates and fills a tag named 'all':

    EXPORT_TAGS_ALL => 'all',
  ----

  INC
   The value specified is added to the includes search path. It makes
   sense to assign this key only when AUTOWRAP and/or WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL
   are set to a true value. eg:

    INC => '-I/my/includes/dir -I/other/includes/dir',
    INC => ['-I/my/includes/dir', '-I/other/includes/dir'],
  ----

  LD
   Specify the linker you want to use.It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    LD => 'g++',
  ----

  LDDLFLAGS
   Specify which linker flags to use. (Existing value gets clobbered, so
   you'll probably want to re-specify it.) It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    LDDLFLAGS => "$my_ldopts " . $Config{lddlflags},
  ----

  LIBS
   The value(s) specified become the LIBS search path. It makes sense
   to assign this key only if WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value.
   eg:

    LIBS => '-L/somewhere -lsomelib -L/elsewhere -lotherlib',
    LIBS => ['-L/somewhere -lsomelib', '-L/elsewhere -lotherlib'],
  ----

  MAKE
   Specify the make utility you want to use. It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    MAKE => 'pmake', # I have no idea whether that will work :-)
  ----

  MANIF
   If true, the MANIFEST file will be written. (It will include all created
   files.) eg:

   MANIF => 1,

  ----

  MYEXTLIB
   Specifies a user compiled object that should be linked in. 
   Corresponds to the MakeMaker parameter. It makes sense to assign this
   key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    MYEXTLIB => '/your/path/yourmodule.so',
  ----

  OPTIMIZE
   This controls the MakeMaker OPTIMIZE setting.It makes sense to assign
   this key only when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to a true value. eg:

    OPTIMIZE => '-g',
  ----

  PREFIX
   Specifies a prefix that will be automatically stripped from C 
   functions when they are bound to Perl. eg:

    PREFIX => 'FOO_',
  ----

  PRE_HEAD

   Specifies code that will precede the inclusion of all files specified
   in AUTO_INCLUDE (ie EXTERN.h, perl.h, XSUB.h, INLINE.h and anything
   else that might have been added to AUTO_INCLUDE by the user). If the
   specified value identifies a file, the contents of that file will be
   inserted, otherwise the specified value is inserted.

    PRE_HEAD => $code_or_filename;
  ----

  PREREQ_PM
   Makes sense to specify this only if WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set to true.
   The string to which PREREQ_PM is set will be reproduced as is in the
   generated Makefile.PL. That is, if you specify:

   PREREQ_PM => "{'Some::Mod' => '1.23', 'Nother::Mod' => '3.21'}",

   then the WriteMakefile hash in the generated Makefile.PL will
   contain:

   PREREQ_PM => {'Some::Mod' => '1.23', 'Nother::Mod' => '3.21'},
  ----

  SRC_LOCATION
   Specifies a C file that contains the C source code. eg:

    SRC_LOCATION => '/home/me/source.ext',
  ----

  TYPEMAPS
   The value(s) specified are added to the list of typemaps.
   eg:

    TYPEMAPS =>'my_typemap my_other_typemap',
    TYPEMAPS =>['my_typemap', 'my_other_typemap'],
  ----

  USE
   Must be an array reference, listing the modules that the autogenerated
   pm file needs to load (use). Makes no sense to assign this key if
   WRITE_PM is not set to a true value. eg:

    USE => ['Digest::MD5', 'LWP::Simple'];
  ----

  USING
   If you want Inline to use ParseRegExp.pm instead of RecDescent.pm for 
   the parsing, then specify either:

    USING => ['ParseRegExp'],
    or
    USING => 'ParseRegExp',
  ----

  VERSION
   Set this to the version number of the module. It makes sense to assign
   this key only if WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL and/or WRITE_PM is set to a true
   value. eg:

    VERSION => 0.42,
  ----

  WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL
   Set this to to a true value if you want the Makefile.PL to be
   generated. (You should also assign the 'VERSION' key to the
   correct value when WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL is set.) eg:

    WRITE_MAKEFILE_PL => 1,
  ----

  WRITE_PM
   Set this to a true value if you want a .pm file to be generated.
   You'll also need to assign the 'VERSION' key appropriately. 
   Note that it's a fairly simplistic .pm file - no POD, no perl 
   subroutines, no exported subs (unless EXPORT_ALL or EXPORT_OK_ALL
   has been set), no warnings - but it will allow the utilisation of all of
   the XSubs in the XS file. eg:

    WRITE_PM => 1,
  ----

=head1 TODO

 Improve the t_makefile_pl test script. It currently provides strong 
 indication that everything is working fine ... but is not conclusive.
 (This might take forever.)
