You'll need to make changes to your C and add code to your C / C file(s). =head1 HOW TO =head2 Makefile.PL use EV::MakeMaker qw(ev_args); # ... set up %args ... WriteMakefile (ev_args (%args)); =head2 extension.pm use EV (); # imports optional =head2 extension.xs #include "EVAPI.h" [...] BOOT: I_EV_API ("YourModule"); =head1 API See the L header, which you should include instead of F. In short, all the functions and macros from F should work, except that the trailing underscore macros (C, C) are not available (except C :). Multiplicity is enabled. The C member in each watcher is of type C and not C (this might change at some point). =head1 EXAMPLE The L, L and L modules all give nice examples on how to use this module. Here are some F<.xs> fragments taken from EV::ADNS that should get you going: #include "EVAPI.h" static ev_prepare pw; static ev_idle iw; static void idle_cb (EV_P_ ev_idle *w, int revents) { ev_idle_stop (EV_A, w); } MODULE = ... BOOT: { I_EV_API ("EV::ADNS"); ev_prepare_init (&pw, prepare_cb); ev_init (&iw, idle_cb); ev_set_priority (&iw, EV_MINPRI); ev_idle_start (EV_DEFAULT, &iw); } =cut
