.IX Title "Inline-Support 3"
.TH Inline-Support 3 "2002-10-28" "perl v5.8.0" "User Contributed Perl Documentation"
Inline\-Support \- Support Information for Inline.pm and related modules.
This document contains all of the latest support information for
\&\f(CW\*(C`Inline.pm\*(C'\fR and the recognized Inline Language Support Modules (ILSMs)
available on \s-1CPAN\s0.
.SH "SUPPORTED LANGUAGES"
.IX Header "SUPPORTED LANGUAGES"
The most important language that Inline supports is \f(CW\*(C`C\*(C'\fR. That is
because Perl itself is written in \f(CW\*(C`C\*(C'\fR. By giving a your Perl scripts
access to \f(CW\*(C`C\*(C'\fR, you in effect give them access to the entire glorious
internals of Perl. (Caveat scriptor :\-)
As of this writing, Inline also supports:
\& - And even Inline::Foo! :)
Projects that I would most like to see happen in the year 2001 are:
.SH "SUPPORTED PLATFORMS"
.IX Header "SUPPORTED PLATFORMS"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Inline::C\*(C'\fR should work anywhere that \s-1CPAN\s0 extension modules (those
that use \s-1XS\s0) can be installed, using the typical install format of:
It has been tested on many Unix and Windows variants.
\&\fB\s-1NOTE\s0\fR: \f(CW\*(C`Inline::C\*(C'\fR requires Perl 5.005 or higher because
\&\f(CW\*(C`Parse::RecDescent\*(C'\fR requires it. (Something to do with the \f(CW\*(C`qr\*(C'\fR
Inline has been successfully tested at one time or another on the
The Microsoft tests deserve a little more explanation. I used the following:
\& Windows NT 4.0 (service pack 6)
\& Perl 5.005_03 (ActiveState build 522)
\& The "nmake" make utility (distributed w/ Visual C++)
\&\f(CW\*(C`Inline::C\*(C'\fR pulls all of its base configuration (including which
\&\f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR utility to use) from \f(CW\*(C`Config.pm\*(C'\fR. Since your MSWin32 version of
Perl probably came from ActiveState (as a binary distribution) the
\&\f(CW\*(C`Config.pm\*(C'\fR will indicate that \f(CW\*(C`nmake\*(C'\fR is the system's \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR
utility. That is because ActiveState uses Visual \*(C+ to compile Perl.
To install \f(CW\*(C`Inline.pm\*(C'\fR (or any other \s-1CPAN\s0 module) on MSWin32 w/ Visual
Inline has also been made to work with Mingw32/gcc on all Windows
platforms. This is a free compiler for Windows. You must also use a perl
built with that compiler.
The \*(L"Cygwin\*(R" test was done on a Windows 98 machine using the Cygwin
Unix/Win32 porting layer software from Cygnus. The \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR binary on
this machine was also compiled using the Cygwin tool set (\f(CW\*(C`gcc\*(C'\fR). This
software is freely available from http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
If you get Inline to work on a new platform, please send me email email.
If it doesn't work, let me know as well and I'll see what can be done.
