=head1 NAME
ExtUtils::Constant - generate XS code to import C header constants
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use ExtUtils::Constant qw (WriteConstants);
WriteConstants(
NAME => 'Foo',
NAMES => [qw(FOO BAR BAZ)],
);
# Generates wrapper code to make the values of the constants FOO BAR BAZ
# available to perl
=head1 DESCRIPTION
ExtUtils::Constant facilitates generating C and XS wrapper code to allow
perl modules to AUTOLOAD constants defined in C library header files.
It is principally used by the C<h2xs> utility, on which this code is based.
It doesn't contain the routines to scan header files to extract these
constants.
=head1 USAGE
Generally one only needs to call the C<WriteConstants> function, and then
#include "const-c.inc"
in the C section of C<Foo.xs>
INCLUDE: const-xs.inc
in the XS section of C<Foo.xs>.
For greater flexibility use C<constant_types()>, C<C_constant> and
C<XS_constant>, with which C<WriteConstants> is implemented.
Currently this module understands the following types. h2xs may only know
a subset. The sizes of the numeric types are chosen by the C<Configure>
script at compile time.
=over 4
=item IV
signed integer, at least 32 bits.
=item UV
unsigned integer, the same size as I<IV>
=item NV
floating point type, probably C<double>, possibly C<long double>
=item PV
NUL terminated string, length will be determined with C<strlen>
=item PVN
A fixed length thing, given as a [pointer, length] pair. If you know the
length of a string at compile time you may use this instead of I<PV>
=item SV
A B<mortal> SV.
=item YES
Truth. (C<PL_sv_yes>) The value is not needed (and ignored).
=item NO
Defined Falsehood. (C<PL_sv_no>) The value is not needed (and ignored).
=item UNDEF
C<undef>. The value of the macro is not needed.

=item XS_constant PACKAGE, TYPES, XS_SUBNAME, C_SUBNAME
A function to generate the XS code to implement the perl subroutine
I<PACKAGE>::constant used by I<PACKAGE>::AUTOLOAD to load constants.
This XS code is a wrapper around a C subroutine usually generated by
C<C_constant>, and usually named C<constant>.
I<TYPES> should be given either as a comma separated list of types that the
C subroutine C<constant> will generate or as a reference to a hash. It should
be the same list of types as C<C_constant> was given.
[Otherwise C<XS_constant> and C<C_constant> may have different ideas about
the number of parameters passed to the C function C<constant>]
You can call the perl visible subroutine something other than C<constant> if
you give the parameter I<XS_SUBNAME>. The C subroutine it calls defaults to
the name of the perl visible subroutine, unless you give the parameter
I<C_SUBNAME>.

names that the constant() routine doesn't recognise.

WriteMakefileSnippet ATTRIBUTE =E<gt> VALUE [, ...]
A function to generate perl code for Makefile.PL that will regenerate

with the addition of C<INDENT> to specify the number of leading spaces
(default 2).

=item WriteConstants ATTRIBUTE =E<gt> VALUE [, ...]
Writes a file of C code and a file of XS code which you should C<#include>
and C<INCLUDE> in the C and XS sections respectively of your module's XS
code. You probably want to do this in your C<Makefile.PL>, so that you can
easily edit the list of constants without touching the rest of your module.
The attributes supported are
=over 4
=item NAME
Name of the module. This must be specified
=item DEFAULT_TYPE
The default type for the constants. If not specified C<IV> is assumed.
=item BREAKOUT_AT
The names of the constants are grouped by length. Generate child subroutines
for each group with this number or more names in.
=item NAMES
An array of constants' names, either scalars containing names, or hashrefs
as detailed in L<"C_constant">.
=item PROXYSUBS
If true, uses proxy subs. See L<ExtUtils::Constant::ProxySubs>.
=item C_FH
A filehandle to write the C code to. If not given, then I<C_FILE> is opened
for writing.
=item C_FILE
The name of the file to write containing the C code. The default is
C<const-c.inc>. The C<-> in the name ensures that the file can't be
mistaken for anything related to a legitimate perl package name, and
not naming the file C<.c> avoids having to override Makefile.PL's
C<.xs> to C<.c> rules.
=item XS_FH
A filehandle to write the XS code to. If not given, then I<XS_FILE> is opened
for writing.
=item XS_FILE
The name of the file to write containing the XS code. The default is
C<const-xs.inc>.
=item XS_SUBNAME
The perl visible name of the XS subroutine generated which will return the
constants. The default is C<constant>.
=item C_SUBNAME
The name of the C subroutine generated which will return the constants.
The default is I<XS_SUBNAME>. Child subroutines have C<_> and the name
length appended, so constants with 10 character names would be in
C<constant_10> with the default I<XS_SUBNAME>.
