NAME

Imager::Inline - using Imager with Inline::C.

SYNOPSIS

   use Inline with => 'Imager';
   use Inline C => <<'EOS';
   Imager some_func(Imager::Color c, Imager::Fill f) {
     Imager img = i_img_8_new(200, 200, 3);
     /* fill with color */
     i_box_filled(img, 0, 0, 199, 199, c);
     /* inner area with fill */
     i_box_cfill(img, 50, 50, 149, 149, f);
 
     return img;
   }
   EOS
 
 

DESCRIPTION

Imager hooks into Inline's "with" syntax to make it easier to write Inline::C code that works with Imager, you can call Imager functions without having to include headers or perform initialization.

Imager's inline "with" support does the following:

*
add the installed Imager include directory to INC
*
add the Imager typemap to TYPEMAPS
*
include the headers needed by Imager C extension modules.
*
declare and initialize the Imager API function table pointer
*
filter the supplied code to replace Imager's class names with those that Inline::C can handle.

LIMITATIONS

The filtering mechanism is global, it will replace the class names even inside string constants. If you need a string matching the name of one of Imager's classes, like "Imager::Color" you will need to split it into 2 to use C's string pasting mechanism, for example: "Imager:" ":Color".
