Re: size of scalar returned by POPp in perlEmbed

'perldoc perlapi' says

POPp
Pops a string off the stack. Deprecated. New code should provide a STRLEN n_a and use POPpx.

update: so something like

STRLEN n_a;
char* stringy;
stringy = POPpx;
[download]

Now n_a contains the length of stringy , and you can do whatever from there.
