Re: Re: Re: Re: Problems Passing String Argument With Nulls From C To Perl

Roger, Thanks for your reply. I have never rolled my own XS module before. I would rather do it with the Win32::API but if you can't you can't. I guess I have a lot of learning to do. Thanks for all the help. Best Regards, Mike

Consider Inline::C as a light alternative to XS. You can probably write your own C code rather easily with that, and the rest of the glue just magically comes together. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply]

I'd recommend SWIG - it's magically easy to use, and has the added benefit of allowing you to use your C functions in (in addition to Perl) Tcl, Python, Guile, Java, Ruby, and Mzscheme with minimal additional effort. Update More languages: Objective Caml, C#, and the Chicken scheme compiler.	[reply]
