WL - Perl Wayland protocol binding
use WL;
WL is a package generated from Wayland protocol definition using wl-scanner.pl. It implements WL::Base subclasses with wrappers for requests, event processing and constants for enums.
It is not indended to be used directly. Instead, see WL::Connection to see how to obtain the object instances.
To see how to attach event callbacks and issue requests, please refer to WL::Base base class.
Until proper documentation is finished, please refer to documentation of C bindings of the generated code (it is intended to be readable) to see what arguments to give to requests and expect from events.
Please consider this an alpha quality code, whose API can change at any time, until we reach version 1.0.
The interface documentation for the bindings is lacking.
Only client part implemented, not server.
