.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`ExtUtils::ParseXS\*(C'\fR will compile \s-1XS\s0 code into C code by embedding the constructs
necessary to let C functions manipulate Perl values and creates the glue
necessary to let Perl access those functions. The compiler uses typemaps to
determine how to map C function parameters and variables to Perl values.
.PP
The compiler will search for typemap files called \fItypemap\fR. It will use
the following search path to find default typemaps, with the rightmost
typemap taking precedence.

.SH "EXPORT"
.IX Header "EXPORT"
None by default. \f(CW\*(C`process_file()\*(C'\fR and/or \f(CW\*(C`report_error_count()\*(C'\fR
may be exported upon request. Using the functional interface is
discouraged.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.ie n .IP "$pxs\->\fInew()\fR" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$pxs\fR\->\fInew()\fR" 4
.IX Item "$pxs->new()"
Returns a new, empty \s-1XS\s0 parser/compiler object.
.ie n .IP "$pxs\->\fIprocess_file()\fR" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$pxs\fR\->\fIprocess_file()\fR" 4
.IX Item "$pxs->process_file()"
This method processes an \s-1XS\s0 file and sends output to a C file.
The method may be called as a function (this is the legacy
interface) and will then use a singleton as invocant.
.Sp
Named parameters control how the processing is done.
The following parameters are accepted:
.RS 4
.IP "\fB\*(C+\fR" 4
.IX Item ""
Adds \f(CW\*(C`extern "C"\*(C'\fR to the C code. Default is false.
.IP "\fBhiertype\fR" 4
.IX Item "hiertype"
Retains \f(CW\*(C`::\*(C'\fR in type names so that \*(C+ hierarchical types can be
mapped. Default is false.
.IP "\fBexcept\fR" 4
.IX Item "except"
Adds exception handling stubs to the C code. Default is false.
.IP "\fBtypemap\fR" 4
.IX Item "typemap"
Indicates that a user-supplied typemap should take precedence over the
default typemaps. A single typemap may be specified as a string, or
multiple typemaps can be specified in an array reference, with the
last typemap having the highest precedence.
.IP "\fBprototypes\fR" 4
.IX Item "prototypes"
Generates prototype code for all xsubs. Default is false.
.IP "\fBversioncheck\fR" 4
.IX Item "versioncheck"
Makes sure at run time that the object file (derived from the \f(CW\*(C`.xs\*(C'\fR
file) and the \f(CW\*(C`.pm\*(C'\fR files have the same version number. Default is
true.
.IP "\fBlinenumbers\fR" 4
.IX Item "linenumbers"
Adds \f(CW\*(C`#line\*(C'\fR directives to the C output so error messages will look
like they came from the original \s-1XS\s0 file. Default is true.
.IP "\fBoptimize\fR" 4
.IX Item "optimize"
Enables certain optimizations. The only optimization that is currently
affected is the use of \fItarget\fRs by the output C code (see perlguts).
Not optimizing may significantly slow down the generated code, but this is the way
\&\fBxsubpp\fR of 5.005 and earlier operated. Default is to optimize.
.IP "\fBinout\fR" 4
.IX Item "inout"
Enable recognition of \f(CW\*(C`IN\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`OUT_LIST\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`INOUT_LIST\*(C'\fR
declarations. Default is true.
.IP "\fBargtypes\fR" 4
.IX Item "argtypes"
Enable recognition of ANSI-like descriptions of function signature.
Default is true.
.IP "\fBs\fR" 4
.IX Item "s"
\&\fIMaintainer note:\fR I have no clue what this does. Strips function prefixes?

.ie n .IP "$pxs\->\fIreport_error_count()\fR" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$pxs\fR\->\fIreport_error_count()\fR" 4
.IX Item "$pxs->report_error_count()"
This method returns the number of [a certain kind of] errors
encountered during processing of the \s-1XS\s0 file.
.Sp
The method may be called as a function (this is the legacy
interface) and will then use a singleton as invocant.
.SH "AUTHOR"
.IX Header "AUTHOR"
Based on xsubpp code, written by Larry Wall.
