The bind method is specific to Inline.pm. See Inline.pod:
The bind() Function
An alternative to using the BEGIN block method is to specify
the
source code at run time using the ʼInline->bind()ʼ method.
(This is
one of the interface exceptions mentioned above) The "bind()"
method takes the same arguments as ʼuse Inline ...ʼ.
my $code = <<END;
/* Java code goes here ... */
END
Inline->bind(Java => $code);
You can think of "bind()" as a way to "eval()" code in other
pro-
gramming languages.
Although bind() is a powerful feature, it is not recommended
for
use in Inline based modules. In fact, it wonʼt work at all
for
installable modules. See instructions below for creating
modules
with Inline.
