 Description

acdk_perl provides an integration of ACDK and Perl with embedding Perl Code in ACDK and  accessing ACDK object from Perl.

In contrast to tradional glue code (XS) with acdk_perl no further code has to be written or generated to access C++ Objects from perl code.


sub foo($$)
{
  my ($string1, $string2) = @_;
  my $sb = pacdk::new("acdk/lang/StringBuffer", $string1);
  $sb->append($string2);
  return $sb->toString();
}
pacdk::peek_static("acdk/lang/System", "out")->println(foo("Hello Perl ", "from ACDK"));


With a few lines of code:

  RAPerlInterpreter pi = new APerlInterpreter();
  pi->parse("print(\"Hello Perl\");\n");
  pi->run();
an full featured Perl interpreter can be embedded into C++ code.

The  acdkperl command line perl interpreter is already prepared to have access to ACDK world.

 Notes

  This version uses the ActiveState Perl 5.6 Libraries for the Windows
platform and 5.00503 for Linux.

You have to adjust the path to header and libraries in the project settings and makefiles.

In the ./acdk_perl/lib/perl directory is a tiny perl script acdk_perl_test.pl, which demonstrates some features To run this, script type ./bin/acdkperl ./acdk_perl/lib/perl/acdk_perl_test.pl in the root acdk directory.
