Hi.

I'm going to write a couple of XS modules (they will be in the Win32 namespace, but i think that is a general question!). Some of them dependent on others. Example:

package Foo::Bar;
package Foo::Bar::Builder;
package Foo::Bar::Store;

* Foo::Bar::Builder creates an Foo::Bar object.
* Foo::Bar objectes can be stored in a Foo::Bar::Store.

Right now i have the following structure:

Foo/Bar.xs
Foo/Bar/Builder.xs
Foo/Bar/Store.xs

How does Foo::Bar::Builder and Foo::Bar::Store know, that there is a Foo::Bar or better what Foo::Bar is! (Builder has a create function that returns a Foo::Bar object (TYPEMAP Foo::Bar T_PTROBJ)).

or is it better to put everything into Foo/Bar.xs like

MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::BarPtr
MODULE = Foo::Bar::Store        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::Store
MODULE = Foo::Bar::Store        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::StorePtr
MODULE = Foo::Bar::Builder        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::Builder
MODULE = Foo::Bar::Builder        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::BuilderPtr

or (like that?)

MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::BarPtr
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::Store
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::StorePtr
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::Builder
MODULE = Foo::Bar        PACKAGE = Foo::Bar::BuilderPtr

<edit1>Typo fixed.</edit1>
<edit2>So in general, how do i call the new function of Foo::Bar (defined in Foo/Bar.xs) inside Foo/Bar/Builder.xs?</edit2>
