Re^4: How to call Encode::decode from Perl XS

If you want a module to automatically load another module from XS, and not import all functions/methods,

Not importing can be done from Perl too. It's not an advantage of XS. In Perl, not importing is done by using

use Exporter qw( );
[download]

require Exporter;
[download]

instead of

use Exporter;
[download]

As for ~~automatically~~dynamically loading a module, a need hasn't been mentioned.

Update: Added first two sentences to clear up confusion mentioned in private message.

I don't believe I do need to dynamically load Encode from XS so long as using it from DBD::ODBC's ODBC.pm makes decode usable in XS via call_xx.	[reply]

Once a module is loaded, it's loaded for the whole interpreter. If you don't import `decode`, you'll need to qualify the function name (`Encode::decode(...)`).	[reply] [d/l] [select]
