Re^3: ExtUtils::XSpp usage for a novice

What part of "blows up spectacularly" are you having trouble with?

cc can't parse headers meant to be pares by cpp, it's plain wrong to even try. Knowing that I've the wrong tutorial(for C using h2xs) is only half the battle.

We are asking for the XSpp tutorial for novice, given that there is no hpp2xs. Looking for a fill in the blanks boilerplate, the example with animals and dogs is too beefed up. It's not explained what can and can't be purged or what to do to get started with your own project. One note is that it does not interface with any library.

Seriously, square peg(cc) round hole(hpp header). Yeah I get some error about syntax coming after some other gibberish. I'm not altering the header files from the upstream library that I'm working with to make it more Cish and less C++ish. I'm looking for the tool that calls cpp instead of cc and I think ExtUtils::XSpp is it, it's just "How?"	[reply]

Seriously, square peg(cc) round hole(hpp header)....ExtUtils::XSpp is it, it's just "How?" Look at the example? my $CC = 'g++'; # <<<--- https://metacpan.org/source/SMUELLER/ExtUtils-XSpp-0.18/examples/Object-WithIntAndString/Makefile.PL Module::Build::WithXSpp / ExtUtils::CppGuess # <<<--- https://metacpan.org/source/SMUELLER/ExtUtils-XSpp-0.18/examples/XSpp-Example/Build.PL xspp -> Re^3: XS cannot properly handle typemap with namespace (use XSpp), Re: C tutorial for Perl programmers?
