For that, you'll want to look at the perlguts doc and its 'see also'
section. The Inline::C code and this list will also be helpful.
IIRC, Inline::C parses your C code to figure out which functions to bind
and how. Something similar is probably needed with Fortran.
With Inline::C, your C functions can call the Perl API macros directly
to do more elaborate typemapping. How do Inline::Java and
Inline::Python handle that? Perhaps a look at P5NCI would also be
useful.
