Subject: [MacPerl-Modules] CFM68K Volunteers for XS Builds Requested

Hi, all

Most regular readers of the list are likely aware that I have an ongoing
project to develop and document a wide range of procedures for building
MacPerl extensions. The extensions are both XS and SWIG, although I
haven't discussed SWIG yet on the list.

The goals (and we're quite close to them) are:

(1) a standard set of modified build rules files for building MP
extensions under Codewarrior MPW, using the procedure otherwise described
in MPPE;
(2) project descriptions for building MP extensions using the Codewarrior
IDE;
(3) documentation (POD and HTML) for the above.

In conjunction with Alan Fry I've recently added pure Apple MPW to the
list also. We have working extensions built using only what one gets with
Apple MPW and MacPerl, and personally I'm really pushing this one because
it's free.

What would come in very helpful would be a few enthusiastic CFM68K people.
Ideally you would be interested in actually building XS extensions, but
just testing the odd prebuilt extension would be OK, too. There would be
less work involved if you have Codewarrior Pro on hand, as that procedure
for CFM68K is already in place, and just needs test-driving. OTOH, if you
wanted to use Apple MPW with the SC compiler etc etc, I'd be able to make
suggestions, but you'd be in the thick of it from time to time yourself.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Arved

PS Regular MacPerl porters work would also benefit greatly from CFM68K
feedback. Thank you.
