Dist::...:Import(3pm)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to this User Contributed Perl Documentation page for Dist::...:Import(3pm) — and the actual main character is Dist::Build::XS::Import, the Dist::Build extension that imports headers for other XS modules. It's giving “glue, but make it iconic” ✨

💖 VERSION 💖

version 0.028 — periodt, that's the version.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Here's the exact spell you cast, no cap:

load_extension('Dist::Build::XS');
load_extension('Dist::Build::XS::Import');

add_xs(
    module => 'Foo::Bar',
    import => 'My::Dependency',
);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this module is an extension of Dist::Build::XS — it adds an additional argument to the add_xs function, and that argument is import.

It's the counterpart to Dist::Build::XS::Export) — and that one will add the include dir, typemap and compilation flags for the given module. That's the whole vibe, bestie 💅
