Basic/Core/Core.xs.PL

I'm just finished compiling PDL-2.4.9_005 with ExtUtils::ParseXS: 3.03

Yes - it should build fine, but only because its Basic/Core/typemap has a pointless typemap entry for 'PDL_Long *'.
Well ... of course, it's *not* pointless .... it prevents xsubpp from complaining about the lack of a typemap entry. But the typemap has no INPUT or OUTPUT entry for 'PDL_Long *' - it therefore does nothing other than trick xsubpp into believing that the typemapping has been done, thereby silencing the complaint.
Of course, no such typemapping has been done and I don't think this is the right solution.

I guess I remembered correctly, must be the comments, use /**/

If you say so ....

Cheers,
Rob

UPDATE: I suppose I should take the time to point out that the function I gave by way of example doesn't contain literally // code that does stuff
That just stands for a block of code whose actual content is irrelevant to the question I've asked.
Anonymous Monk, if you want to see the failure, try building 2.4.9_004 with ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.03. The error should occur about one minute (if that) into the 'make' stage.
