💅 NAME 💅

ExtUtils::Typemaps::InputMap — literally just one single entry in the INPUT section of a typemap, bestie. That's the whole gig. One entry. Living its little main character life. 🎀

Oh and btw, the header up top is truncated all cute like ExtUtil...nputMap(3pm) — that's the 3pm Perl manual page for ExtUtils::Typemaps::InputMap, in case the vibe check on the title bar confused you. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use ExtUtils::Typemaps;
...
my $input = $typemap->get_input_map('T_NV');
my $code = $input->code();
$input->code("...");

Obsessed with this flow ngl — grab the typemap, pull the input map for 'T_NV', read the code out, then set it to "...". Iconic little round trip. 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Like, go read ExtUtils::Typemaps for the actual details, okay? That's where the lore lives. This page is just the entry object. 🙈

💅 METHODS 💅

🎀 new

Needs the "xstype" and "code" parameters. Both. Required. No skips. ✨

🎀 code

Returns — or sets — the INPUT mapping code for this entry. So you can read it, or you can rewrite it. You have the power. 👑

🎀 xstype

Returns the name of the XS type of this INPUT map. Just the name. Chill little getter. 🧚

🎀 cleaned_code

Returns a cleaned-up copy of the code — a version where certain transformations have been applied to make it more ANSI compliant. Note the "copy" part: it's giving you the polished version, not messing with the original. Slay. 💜
