Re^4: Pure Perl Modules, XS Modules, what's the current trends?

In theory, with a working and stable P5NCI installed, any module which uses it can be pure Perl, so there's no compiler necessary to install them.

uuuhhhh...mama (salivating). Sounds terrific. But to compĺete the picture, all the good people who has kindly contributed modules that use XS would have to rewrite them to a pure-perl implementation, is my understanding correct? I did a small XS test once....looong time ago. Maybe it would ease my problems if I were to revisit that. Heatseeker Cannibal	[reply]

You're right. Any XS module which is just a simple library binding would need recoding to use P5NCI instead.	[reply]
