in reply to embedding perl in c++

I'm not sure what your are trying to do?
C or C++ is complex and not a good idea for UI. I would not recommend that.
The Perl DBI for SQL is relatively simple.

Re^2: embedding perl in c++

    I've been using c++ for a long time and ive come to really enjoy Qt as a gui library. I want to use perl inside a c++/Qt program for tasks like data sorting, searching etc.. im using c++ because i love it and i want to embed perl because i think having the skill set to do so would be invaluable in future projects, Where c++ would be ideal/mandatory and not just personal preference such as a game engine or something. does that answer your question?

      It's not exactly what i wanted but i found out Qt has a way to do this called QProcess, it doesn't embed perl but it can call the interpreter and run the scripts which is close enough for now. I plan to keep educating myself until the perlembed documentation doesnt quite look so daunting. I'm sure you will all be hearing from me again i've found a deep interest in the perl ways :) thank you for your wisdoms, happy coding.
