Brian,
1) Inline::Struct
I've been looking at your OO Inline example. ...And thinking that it would
be nice if there were an Inline::Struct to provide an OO interface to define
structures similarily to the interface Class::Struct uses. -But something
which would facilitate their use in Inlined languages.
I'll probably bang my head against that wall for a little while, and see if
I can't make something that shows enough promise to merit further attention.
2) More detailed documentation for the bone-headed on best practices when
manipulating [AHIS]V's. Yes much of the general stuff is in perlguts,
perlapi, perlxs, etc. But a coherent discussion of practical implementation
details would be most excellent. Checking for read-only values, objects and
references, magic, do's and don't's, etc.
3) Some of your earlier comments on Inline included creating an abstraction
layer between XS and the end user (not the perlapi mind you). I'm curious,
whether or not this is still intended, and how you plan to go about it. I
believe (unless the cloud of my ignorance is too thick) that typemap support
currently drops you off into the wilds of XS.
Thanks. In in case I haven't mentioned it recently... Inline is wonderful as
is. Future improvements are so much icing on the cake.
Garrett
