NAME
       ExtUtils::Builder::ParseXS - Essential functions for implementing XS in a Plan


VERSION
       version 0.020


SYNOPSIS
        $planner->load_module("ExtUtils::Builder::ParseXS");
        $planner->parse_xs("foo.xs", "foo.c");


DESCRIPTION
       This module implements several helper methods used in implementing XS.

       It takes one optional argument "config", which should be an "ExtUtils::Config" compatible object. If your
       $planner has a "config" delegate, that will be used as default value.

   DELEGATES
       parse_xs($source, $destination, %options)

       This will parse the XS file $source and write the resulting C file to $destination.

       •   mkdir

           If set this will mkdir the base of the target before running the parse.

       •   dependencies

           This lists additional dependencies that will be added to the target.

       •   typemap

           The name of the typemap file. Defaults to "typemap" if that file exists.

       •   hiertype

           Allow hierarchical types (with double colons) such as used in C++.

       c_file_for_xs($filename, $dir = dirname($filename))

       This returns the path to the C file for a certain XS file.

       module_for_xs($filename)

       This returns the module corresponding to a specific XS files.

       extension_filename($module_name)

       This will return the path for the loadable object of an extension for $module.
