ExtUtils::Typemaps::OutputMap(3pm)
NAME
ExtUtils::Typemaps::OutputMap - Entry in the OUTPUT section of a
typemap
SYNOPSIS
use ExtUtils::Typemaps;
...
my $output = $typemap->get_output_map('T_NV');
my $code = $output->code();
$output->code("...");
DESCRIPTION
Refer to ExtUtils::Typemaps for details.
METHODS
new
Requires "xstype" and "code" parameters.
code
Returns or sets the OUTPUT mapping code for this entry.
xstype
Returns the name of the XS type of the OUTPUT map.
cleaned_code
Returns a cleaned-up copy of the code to which certain transformations
have been applied to make it more ANSI compliant.
targetable
This is an obscure but effective optimization that used to live in
"ExtUtils::ParseXS" directly. Not implementing it should never result
in incorrect use of typemaps, just less efficient code.
In a nutshell, this will check whether the output code involves calling
"sv_setiv", "sv_setuv", "sv_setnv", "sv_setpv" or "sv_setpvn" to set
the special $arg placeholder to a new value AT THE END OF THE OUTPUT
CODE. If that is the case, the code is eligible for using the
"TARG"-related macros to optimize this. Thus the name of the method:
"targetable".
If this optimization is applicable, "ExtUtils::ParseXS" will emit a
"dXSTARG;" definition at the start of the generated XSUB code, and type
(see below) dependent code to set "TARG" and push it on the stack at
the end of the generated XSUB code.
If the optimization can not be applied, this returns undef. If it can
be applied, this method returns a hash reference containing the
following information:
type: Any of the characters i, u, n, p
with_size: Bool indicating whether this is the sv_setpvn variant
what: The code that actually evaluates to the output scalar
what_size: If "with_size", this has the string length (as code,
not constant, including leading comma)
