=head1 NAME
XSLoader - Dynamically load C libraries into Perl code
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package YourPackage;
use XSLoader;
XSLoader::load 'YourPackage', $YourPackage::VERSION;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module defines a standard I<simplified> interface to the dynamic
linking mechanisms available on many platforms. Its primary purpose is
to implement cheap automatic dynamic loading of Perl modules.
For more complicated interface see L<DynaLoader>. Many (most)
features of DynaLoader are not implemented in XSLoader, like for
example the dl_load_flags is not honored by XSLoader.
=head2 Migration from C<DynaLoader>
A typical module using L<DynaLoader|DynaLoader> starts like this:
package YourPackage;
require DynaLoader;
our @ISA = qw( OnePackage OtherPackage DynaLoader );
our $VERSION = '0.01';
bootstrap YourPackage $VERSION;
Change this to
package YourPackage;
use XSLoader;
our @ISA = qw( OnePackage OtherPackage );
our $VERSION = '0.01';
XSLoader::load 'YourPackage', $VERSION;
In other words: replace C<require DynaLoader> by C<use XSLoader>, remove
C<DynaLoader> from @ISA, change C<bootstrap> by C<XSLoader::load>. Do not
forget to quote the name of your package on the C<XSLoader::load> line,
and add comma (C<,>) before the arguments ($VERSION above).
Of course, if @ISA contained only C<DynaLoader>, there is no need to have the
@ISA assignment at all; moreover, if instead of C<our> one uses
backward-compatible
use vars qw($VERSION @ISA);
one can remove this reference to @ISA together with the @ISA assignment
If no $VERSION was specified on the C<bootstrap> line, the last line becomes
XSLoader::load 'YourPackage';
=head2 Backward compatible boilerplate
If you want to have your cake and eat it too, you need a more complicated
boilerplate.
package YourPackage;
use vars qw($VERSION @ISA);
@ISA = qw( OnePackage OtherPackage );
$VERSION = '0.01';
eval {
require XSLoader;
XSLoader::load('YourPackage', $VERSION);
1;
} or do {
require DynaLoader;
push @ISA, 'DynaLoader';
bootstrap YourPackage $VERSION;
};
The parentheses about XSLoader::load() arguments are needed since we replaced
C<use XSLoader> by C<require>, so the compiler does not know that a function
XSLoader::load() is present.
This boilerplate uses the low-overhead C<XSLoader> if present; if used with
an antic Perl which has no C<XSLoader>, it falls back to using C<DynaLoader>.
=head1 Order of initialization: early load()
I<Skip this section if the XSUB functions are supposed to be called from other
modules only; read it only if you call your XSUBs from the code in your module,
or have a C<BOOT:> section in your XS file (see L<perlxs/"The BOOT: Keyword">).
What is described here is equally applicable to L<DynaLoader|DynaLoader>
interface.>
A sufficiently complicated module using XS would have both Perl code (defined
in F<YourPackage.pm>) and XS code (defined in F<YourPackage.xs>). If this
Perl code makes calls into this XS code, and/or this XS code makes calls to
the Perl code, one should be careful with the order of initialization.
The call to XSLoader::load() (or bootstrap()) has three side effects:
=over
=item *
if $VERSION was specified, a sanity check is done to insure that the versions
of the F<.pm> and the (compiled) F<.xs> parts are compatible;
=item *
The XSUBs are made accessible from Perl;
=item *
If the C<BOOT:> section was present in F<.xs> file, the code there is called.
=back
Consequently, if the code in F<.pm> file makes calls to these XSUBs, it is
convenient to have XSUBs installed before the Perl code is defined; for
example, this makes prototypes for XSUBs visible to this Perl code.
Alternatively, if the C<BOOT:> section makes calls to Perl functions (or
uses Perl variables) defined in F<.pm> file, they must be defined prior to
the call to XSLoader::load() (or bootstrap()).
The first situation being much more frequent, it makes sense to rewrite the
boilerplate as
package YourPackage;
use XSLoader;
use vars qw($VERSION @ISA);
BEGIN {
@ISA = qw( OnePackage OtherPackage );
$VERSION = '0.01';
# Put Perl code used in the BOOT: section here
XSLoader::load 'YourPackage', $VERSION;
}
# Put Perl code making calls into XSUBs here
=head2 The most hairy case
If the interdependence of your C<BOOT:> section and Perl code is
more complicated than this (e.g., the C<BOOT:> section makes calls to Perl
functions which make calls to XSUBs with prototypes), get rid of the C<BOOT:>
section altogether. Replace it with a function onBOOT(), and call it like
this:
package YourPackage;
use XSLoader;
use vars qw($VERSION @ISA);
BEGIN {
@ISA = qw( OnePackage OtherPackage );
$VERSION = '0.01';
XSLoader::load 'YourPackage', $VERSION;
}
# Put Perl code used in onBOOT() function here; calls to XSUBs are
# prototype-checked.
onBOOT;
# Put Perl initialization code assuming that XS is initialized here
=head1 LIMITATIONS
To reduce the overhead as much as possible, only one possible location
is checked to find the extension DLL (this location is where C<make install>
would put the DLL). If not found, the search for the DLL is transparently
delegated to C<DynaLoader>, which looks for the DLL along the @INC list.
In particular, this is applicable to the structure of @INC used for testing
not-yet-installed extensions. This means that the overhead of running
uninstalled extension may be much more than running the same extension after
C<make install>.
