Anyone out there have any thoughts on how one would go about writing an
Inline::Perl sort of thing? I've done some searching, and I've found the
equivalent module for C. Unfortunately (not that I can blame him!), the
author said he wasn't interested in porting this to Perl.
I'm largely interested because there are a fairly large number of CPAN
modules I would like to use. I'm actually rewriting an application I wrote
in Perl in Ruby. My code desperately needs to be rewritten, but I'm not up
for porting a big chunk of CPAN code to ruby.
My mail address is a spam trap, so please reply to the newsgroup or the
mailing list.
I'm afraid I don't have a constructive answer to this question (I
could have sworn I've seen a ruby/perl module out there but it's been
several years and I might be misremembering the Python one). The
question I have for you is: Which specific CPAN modules does this
application need that don't exist for Ruby? I'm not interested in
generally hearing about modules that people miss from
CPAN/Python/Java, whatever. But, this is a great specific example
where you have a real need. I'd like to see what's missing in this
case.
Thanks,
Chad
