   Compiling your C program
       If you have trouble compiling the scripts in this documentation, you're not alone.  The cardinal
       rule: COMPILE THE PROGRAMS IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY THAT YOUR PERL WAS COMPILED.  (Sorry for yelling.)

       Also, every C program that uses Perl must link in the perl library.  What's that, you ask?  Perl is
       itself written in C; the perl library is the collection of compiled C programs that were used to
       create your perl executable (/usr/bin/perl or equivalent).  (Corollary: you can't use Perl from your
       C program unless Perl has been compiled on your machine, or installed properly--that's why you
       shouldn't blithely copy Perl executables from machine to machine without also copying the lib
       directory.)

       When you use Perl from C, your C program will--usually--allocate, "run", and deallocate a
       PerlInterpreter object, which is defined by the perl library.

       If your copy of Perl is recent enough to contain this documentation (version 5.002 or later), then
       the perl library (and EXTERN.h and perl.h, which you'll also need) will reside in a directory that
       looks like this:

           /usr/local/lib/perl5/your_architecture_here/CORE

       or perhaps just

           /usr/local/lib/perl5/CORE

       or maybe something like

           /usr/opt/perl5/CORE

       Execute this statement for a hint about where to find CORE:

           perl -MConfig -e 'print $Config{archlib}'

       Here's how you'd compile the example in the next section, "Adding a Perl interpreter to your C
       program", on my Linux box:

           % gcc -O2 -Dbool=char -DHAS_BOOL -I/usr/local/include
           -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/i586-linux/5.003/CORE
           -L/usr/local/lib/perl5/i586-linux/5.003/CORE
           -o interp interp.c -lperl -lm

       (That's all one line.)  On my DEC Alpha running old 5.003_05, the incantation is a bit different:

           % cc -O2 -Olimit 2900 -DSTANDARD_C -I/usr/local/include
           -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/alpha-dec_osf/5.00305/CORE
           -L/usr/local/lib/perl5/alpha-dec_osf/5.00305/CORE -L/usr/local/lib
           -D__LANGUAGE_C__ -D_NO_PROTO -o interp interp.c -lperl -lm

       How can you figure out what to add?  Assuming your Perl is post-5.001, execute a "perl -V" command
       and pay special attention to the "cc" and "ccflags" information.

       You'll have to choose the appropriate compiler (cc, gcc, et al.) for your machine: "perl -MConfig -e
       'print $Config{cc}'" will tell you what to use.

       You'll also have to choose the appropriate library directory (/usr/local/lib/...) for your machine.
       If your compiler complains that certain functions are undefined, or that it can't locate -lperl, then
       you need to change the path following the "-L".  If it complains that it can't find EXTERN.h and
       perl.h, you need to change the path following the "-I".

       You may have to add extra libraries as well.  Which ones?  Perhaps those printed by

          perl -MConfig -e 'print $Config{libs}'

       Provided your perl binary was properly configured and installed the ExtUtils::Embed module will
       determine all of this information for you:

          % cc -o interp interp.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

       If the ExtUtils::Embed module isn't part of your Perl distribution, you can retrieve it from
       http://www.perl.com/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module/ExtUtils/ (If this documentation came from your Perl
       distribution, then you're running 5.004 or better and you already have it.)

       The ExtUtils::Embed kit on CPAN also contains all source code for the examples in this document,
       tests, additional examples and other information you may find useful.

   Adding a Perl interpreter to your C program
       In a sense, perl (the C program) is a good example of embedding Perl (the language), so I'll
       demonstrate embedding with miniperlmain.c, included in the source distribution.  Here's a
       bastardized, non-portable version of miniperlmain.c containing the essentials of embedding:

           #include <EXTERN.h>               /* from the Perl distribution     */
           #include <perl.h>                 /* from the Perl distribution     */

           static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;  /***    The Perl interpreter    ***/

           int main(int argc, char **argv, char **env)
           {
               PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env);
               my_perl = perl_alloc();
               perl_construct(my_perl);
               PL_exit_flags |= PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END;
               perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, argc, argv, (char **)NULL);
               perl_run(my_perl);
               perl_destruct(my_perl);
               perl_free(my_perl);
               PERL_SYS_TERM();
           }

       Notice that we don't use the "env" pointer.  Normally handed to "perl_parse" as its final argument,
       "env" here is replaced by "NULL", which means that the current environment will be used.

       The macros PERL_SYS_INIT3() and PERL_SYS_TERM() provide system-specific tune up of the C runtime
       environment necessary to run Perl interpreters; they should only be called once regardless of how
       many interpreters you create or destroy. Call PERL_SYS_INIT3() before you create your first
       interpreter, and PERL_SYS_TERM() after you free your last interpreter.

       Since PERL_SYS_INIT3() may change "env", it may be more appropriate to provide "env" as an argument
       to perl_parse().

       Also notice that no matter what arguments you pass to perl_parse(), PERL_SYS_INIT3() must be invoked
       on the C main() argc, argv and env and only once.

       Now compile this program (I'll call it interp.c) into an executable:

           % cc -o interp interp.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

       After a successful compilation, you'll be able to use interp just like perl itself:

           % interp
           print "Pretty Good Perl \n";
           print "10890 - 9801 is ", 10890 - 9801;
           <CTRL-D>
           Pretty Good Perl
           10890 - 9801 is 1089

       or

           % interp -e 'printf("%x", 3735928559)'
           deadbeef

       You can also read and execute Perl statements from a file while in the midst of your C program, by
       placing the filename in argv[1] before calling perl_run.

   Calling a Perl subroutine from your C program
       To call individual Perl subroutines, you can use any of the call_* functions documented in perlcall.
       In this example we'll use "call_argv".

       That's shown below, in a program I'll call showtime.c.

           #include <EXTERN.h>
           #include <perl.h>

           static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;

           int main(int argc, char **argv, char **env)
           {
               char *args[] = { NULL };
               PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env);
               my_perl = perl_alloc();
               perl_construct(my_perl);

               perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, argc, argv, NULL);
               PL_exit_flags |= PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END;

               /*** skipping perl_run() ***/

               call_argv("showtime", G_DISCARD | G_NOARGS, args);

               perl_destruct(my_perl);
               perl_free(my_perl);
               PERL_SYS_TERM();
           }

       where showtime is a Perl subroutine that takes no arguments (that's the G_NOARGS) and for which I'll
       ignore the return value (that's the G_DISCARD).  Those flags, and others, are discussed in perlcall.

       I'll define the showtime subroutine in a file called showtime.pl:

           print "I shan't be printed.";

           sub showtime {
               print time;
           }

       Simple enough.  Now compile and run:

           % cc -o showtime showtime.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

           % showtime showtime.pl
           818284590

       yielding the number of seconds that elapsed between January 1, 1970 (the beginning of the Unix
       epoch), and the moment I began writing this sentence.

       In this particular case we don't have to call perl_run, as we set the PL_exit_flag
       PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END which executes END blocks in perl_destruct.

       If you want to pass arguments to the Perl subroutine, you can add strings to the "NULL"-terminated
       "args" list passed to call_argv.  For other data types, or to examine return values, you'll need to
       manipulate the Perl stack.  That's demonstrated in "Fiddling with the Perl stack from your C
       program".

   Evaluating a Perl statement from your C program
       Perl provides two API functions to evaluate pieces of Perl code.  These are "eval_sv" in perlapi and
       "eval_pv" in perlapi.

       Arguably, these are the only routines you'll ever need to execute snippets of Perl code from within
       your C program.  Your code can be as long as you wish; it can contain multiple statements; it can
       employ "use" in perlfunc, "require" in perlfunc, and "do" in perlfunc to include external Perl files.

       eval_pv lets us evaluate individual Perl strings, and then extract variables for coercion into C
       types.  The following program, string.c, executes three Perl strings, extracting an "int" from the
       first, a "float" from the second, and a "char *" from the third.

          #include <EXTERN.h>
          #include <perl.h>

          static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;

          main (int argc, char **argv, char **env)
          {
              char *embedding[] = { "", "-e", "0" };

              PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env);
              my_perl = perl_alloc();
              perl_construct( my_perl );

              perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, 3, embedding, NULL);
              PL_exit_flags |= PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END;
              perl_run(my_perl);

              /** Treat $a as an integer **/
              eval_pv("$a = 3; $a **= 2", TRUE);
              printf("a = %d\n", SvIV(get_sv("a", 0)));

              /** Treat $a as a float **/
              eval_pv("$a = 3.14; $a **= 2", TRUE);
              printf("a = %f\n", SvNV(get_sv("a", 0)));

              /** Treat $a as a string **/
              eval_pv("$a = 'rekcaH lreP rehtonA tsuJ'; $a = reverse($a);", TRUE);
              printf("a = %s\n", SvPV_nolen(get_sv("a", 0)));

              perl_destruct(my_perl);
              perl_free(my_perl);
              PERL_SYS_TERM();
          }

       All of those strange functions with sv in their names help convert Perl scalars to C types.  They're
       described in perlguts and perlapi.

       If you compile and run string.c, you'll see the results of using SvIV() to create an "int", SvNV() to
       create a "float", and SvPV() to create a string:

          a = 9
          a = 9.859600
          a = Just Another Perl Hacker

       In the example above, we've created a global variable to temporarily store the computed value of our
       eval'ed expression.  It is also possible and in most cases a better strategy to fetch the return
       value from eval_pv() instead.  Example:

          ...
          SV *val = eval_pv("reverse 'rekcaH lreP rehtonA tsuJ'", TRUE);
          printf("%s\n", SvPV_nolen(val));
          ...

       This way, we avoid namespace pollution by not creating global variables and we've simplified our code
       as well.

   Performing Perl pattern matches and substitutions from your C program
       The eval_sv() function lets us evaluate strings of Perl code, so we can define some functions that
       use it to "specialize" in matches and substitutions: match(), substitute(), and matches().

          I32 match(SV *string, char *pattern);

       Given a string and a pattern (e.g., "m/clasp/" or "/\b\w*\b/", which in your C program might appear
       as "/\\b\\w*\\b/"), match() returns 1 if the string matches the pattern and 0 otherwise.

          int substitute(SV **string, char *pattern);

       Given a pointer to an "SV" and an "=~" operation (e.g., "s/bob/robert/g" or "tr[A-Z][a-z]"),
       substitute() modifies the string within the "SV" as according to the operation, returning the number
       of substitutions made.

          int matches(SV *string, char *pattern, AV **matches);

       Given an "SV", a pattern, and a pointer to an empty "AV", matches() evaluates "$string =~ $pattern"
       in a list context, and fills in matches with the array elements, returning the number of matches
       found.

       Here's a sample program, match.c, that uses all three (long lines have been wrapped here):

        #include <EXTERN.h>
        #include <perl.h>

        static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;

        /** my_eval_sv(code, error_check)
        ** kinda like eval_sv(),
        ** but we pop the return value off the stack
        **/
        SV* my_eval_sv(SV *sv, I32 croak_on_error)
        {
            dSP;
            SV* retval;


            PUSHMARK(SP);
            eval_sv(sv, G_SCALAR);

            SPAGAIN;
            retval = POPs;
            PUTBACK;

            if (croak_on_error && SvTRUE(ERRSV))
               croak(SvPVx_nolen(ERRSV));

            return retval;
        }

        /** match(string, pattern)
        **
        ** Used for matches in a scalar context.
        **
        ** Returns 1 if the match was successful; 0 otherwise.
        **/

        I32 match(SV *string, char *pattern)
        {
            SV *command = newSV(0), *retval;

            sv_setpvf(command, "my $string = '%s'; $string =~ %s",
                     SvPV_nolen(string), pattern);

            retval = my_eval_sv(command, TRUE);
            SvREFCNT_dec(command);

            return SvIV(retval);
        }

        /** substitute(string, pattern)
        **
        ** Used for =~ operations that modify their left-hand side (s/// and tr///)
        **
        ** Returns the number of successful matches, and
        ** modifies the input string if there were any.
        **/

        I32 substitute(SV **string, char *pattern)
        {
            SV *command = newSV(0), *retval;

            sv_setpvf(command, "$string = '%s'; ($string =~ %s)",
                     SvPV_nolen(*string), pattern);

            retval = my_eval_sv(command, TRUE);
            SvREFCNT_dec(command);

            *string = get_sv("string", 0);
            return SvIV(retval);
        }

        /** matches(string, pattern, matches)
        **
        ** Used for matches in a list context.
        **
        ** Returns the number of matches,

        **/

        I32 matches(SV *string, char *pattern, AV **match_list)
        {
            SV *command = newSV(0);

   Fiddling with the Perl stack from your C program
       When trying to explain stacks, most computer science textbooks mumble something about spring-loaded
       columns of cafeteria plates: the last thing you pushed on the stack is the first thing you pop off.
       That'll do for our purposes: your C program will push some arguments onto "the Perl stack", shut its
       eyes while some magic happens, and then pop the results--the return value of your Perl
       subroutine--off the stack.

       First you'll need to know how to convert between C types and Perl types, with newSViv() and
       sv_setnv() and newAV() and all their friends.  They're described in perlguts and perlapi.

       Then you'll need to know how to manipulate the Perl stack.  That's described in perlcall.

       Once you've understood those, embedding Perl in C is easy.

       Because C has no builtin function for integer exponentiation, let's make Perl's ** operator available
       to it (this is less useful than it sounds, because Perl implements ** with C's pow() function).
       First I'll create a stub exponentiation function in power.pl:

           sub expo {
               my ($a, $b) = @_;
               return $a ** $b;
           }

       Now I'll create a C program, power.c, with a function PerlPower() that contains all the perlguts
       necessary to push the two arguments into expo() and to pop the return value out.  Take a deep
       breath...

           #include <EXTERN.h>
           #include <perl.h>

           static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;

           static void
           PerlPower(int a, int b)
           {
             dSP;                            /* initialize stack pointer      */
             ENTER;                          /* everything created after here */

             PUSHMARK(SP);                   /* remember the stack pointer    */
             XPUSHs(sv_2mortal(newSViv(a))); /* push the base onto the stack  */

                                           /* pop the return value from stack */
             printf ("%d to the %dth power is %d.\n", a, b, POPi);
             PUTBACK;
             FREETMPS;                       /* free that return value        */
             LEAVE;                       /* ...and the XPUSHed "mortal" args.*/
           }

           int main (int argc, char **argv, char **env)
           {
             char *my_argv[] = { "", "power.pl" };

             PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env);
             my_perl = perl_alloc();
             perl_construct( my_perl );

             perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, 2, my_argv, (char **)NULL);
             PL_exit_flags |= PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END;
             perl_run(my_perl);

             PerlPower(3, 4);                      /*** Compute 3 ** 4 ***/

             perl_destruct(my_perl);
             perl_free(my_perl);
             PERL_SYS_TERM();
           }

       Compile and run:

           % cc -o power power.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

           % power
           3 to the 4th power is 81.

   Maintaining a persistent interpreter
       When developing interactive and/or potentially long-running applications, it's a good idea to
       maintain a persistent interpreter rather than allocating and constructing a new interpreter multiple
       times.  The major reason is speed: since Perl will only be loaded into memory once.

       However, you have to be more cautious with namespace and variable scoping when using a persistent
       interpreter.  In previous examples we've been using global variables in the default package "main".
       We knew exactly what code would be run, and assumed we could avoid variable collisions and outrageous
       symbol table growth.

       Let's say your application is a server that will occasionally run Perl code from some arbitrary file.
       Your server has no way of knowing what code it's going to run.  Very dangerous.

       If the file is pulled in by "perl_parse()", compiled into a newly constructed interpreter, and
       subsequently cleaned out with "perl_destruct()" afterwards, you're shielded from most namespace
       troubles.

       One way to avoid namespace collisions in this scenario is to translate the filename into a
       guaranteed-unique package name, and then compile the code into that package using "eval" in perlfunc.
       In the example below, each file will only be compiled once.  Or, the application might choose to
       clean out the symbol table associated with the file after it's no longer needed.  Using "call_argv"
       in perlapi, We'll call the subroutine "Embed::Persistent::eval_file" which lives in the file
       "persistent.pl" and pass the filename and boolean cleanup/cache flag as arguments.

       Note that the process will continue to grow for each file that it uses.  In addition, there might be
       "AUTOLOAD"ed subroutines and other conditions that cause Perl's symbol table to grow.  You might want
       to add some logic that keeps track of the process size, or restarts itself after a certain number of
       requests, to ensure that memory consumption is minimized.  You'll also want to scope your variables
       with "my" in perlfunc whenever possible.

        package Embed::Persistent;
        #persistent.pl

        use strict;
        our %Cache;
        use Symbol qw(delete_package);

       Now compile:

        % cc -o persistent persistent.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

       Here's an example script file:

        #test.pl
        my $string = "hello";
        foo($string);

        sub foo {
            print "foo says: @_\n";
        }

       Now run:

        % persistent
        Enter file name: test.pl
        foo says: hello
        Enter file name: test.pl
        already compiled Embed::test_2epl->handler
        foo says: hello
        Enter file name: ^C

   Execution of END blocks
       Traditionally END blocks have been executed at the end of the perl_run.  This causes problems for
       applications that never call perl_run. Since perl 5.7.2 you can specify "PL_exit_flags |=
       PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END" to get the new behaviour. This also enables the running of END blocks if the
       perl_parse fails and "perl_destruct" will return the exit value.

   $0 assignments
       When a perl script assigns a value to $0 then the perl runtime will try to make this value show up as
       the program name reported by "ps" by updating the memory pointed to by the argv passed to
       perl_parse() and also calling API functions like setproctitle() where available.  This behaviour
       might not be appropriate when embedding perl and can be disabled by assigning the value 1 to the
       variable "PL_origalen" before perl_parse() is called.

       The persistent.c example above is for instance likely to segfault when $0 is assigned to if the
       "PL_origalen = 1;" assignment is removed.  This because perl will try to write to the read only
       memory of the "embedding[]" strings.

   Maintaining multiple interpreter instances
       Some rare applications will need to create more than one interpreter during a session.  Such an
       application might sporadically decide to release any resources associated with the interpreter.

       The program must take care to ensure that this takes place before the next interpreter is
       constructed.  By default, when perl is not built with any special options, the global variable
       "PL_perl_destruct_level" is set to 0, since extra cleaning isn't usually needed when a program only
       ever creates a single interpreter in its entire lifetime.

       Setting "PL_perl_destruct_level" to 1 makes everything squeaky clean:

        while(1) {
            ...
            /* reset global variables here with PL_perl_destruct_level = 1 */
            PL_perl_destruct_level = 1;
            perl_construct(my_perl);
            ...
            /* clean and reset _everything_ during perl_destruct */
            PL_perl_destruct_level = 1;
            perl_destruct(my_perl);
            perl_free(my_perl);
            ...
            /* let's go do it again! */
        }

       When perl_destruct() is called, the interpreter's syntax parse tree and symbol tables are cleaned up,
       and global variables are reset.  The second assignment to "PL_perl_destruct_level" is needed because
       perl_construct resets it to 0.

       Now suppose we have more than one interpreter instance running at the same time.  This is feasible,
       but only if you used the Configure option "-Dusemultiplicity" or the options "-Dusethreads
       -Duseithreads" when building perl.  By default, enabling one of these Configure options sets the per-interpreter perinterpreter
       interpreter global variable "PL_perl_destruct_level" to 1, so that thorough cleaning is automatic and
       interpreter variables are initialized correctly.  Even if you don't intend to run two or more
       interpreters at the same time, but to run them sequentially, like in the above example, it is
       recommended to build perl with the "-Dusemultiplicity" option otherwise some interpreter variables
       may not be initialized correctly between consecutive runs and your application may crash.

       See also "Thread-aware system interfaces" in perlxs.

       Using "-Dusethreads -Duseithreads" rather than "-Dusemultiplicity" is more appropriate if you intend
       to run multiple interpreters concurrently in different threads, because it enables support for
       linking in the thread libraries of your system with the interpreter.

       Let's give it a try:

        #include <EXTERN.h>
        #include <perl.h>

        /* we're going to embed two interpreters */

        #define SAY_HELLO "-e", "print qq(Hi, I'm $^X\n)"

        int main(int argc, char **argv, char **env)
        {
            PerlInterpreter *one_perl, *two_perl;
            char *one_args[] = { "one_perl", SAY_HELLO };
            char *two_args[] = { "two_perl", SAY_HELLO };

            PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env);
            one_perl = perl_alloc();
            two_perl = perl_alloc();

            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(one_perl);
            perl_construct(one_perl);
            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(two_perl);
            perl_construct(two_perl);

            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(one_perl);
            perl_parse(one_perl, NULL, 3, one_args, (char **)NULL);
            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(two_perl);
            perl_parse(two_perl, NULL, 3, two_args, (char **)NULL);

            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(one_perl);
            perl_run(one_perl);
            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(two_perl);
            perl_run(two_perl);

            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(one_perl);
            perl_destruct(one_perl);
            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(two_perl);
            perl_destruct(two_perl);

            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(one_perl);
            perl_free(one_perl);
            PERL_SET_CONTEXT(two_perl);
            perl_free(two_perl);
            PERL_SYS_TERM();
        }

       Note the calls to PERL_SET_CONTEXT().  These are necessary to initialize the global state that tracks
       which interpreter is the "current" one on the particular process or thread that may be running it.
       It should always be used if you have more than one interpreter and are making perl API calls on both
       interpreters in an interleaved fashion.

       PERL_SET_CONTEXT(interp) should also be called whenever "interp" is used by a thread that did not
       create it (using either perl_alloc(), or the more esoteric perl_clone()).

       Compile as usual:

        % cc -o multiplicity multiplicity.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

       Run it, Run it:

        % multiplicity
        Hi, I'm one_perl
        Hi, I'm two_perl

   Using Perl modules, which themselves use C libraries, from your C program
       If you've played with the examples above and tried to embed a script that use()s a Perl module (such
       as Socket) which itself uses a C or C++ library, this probably happened:

        Can't load module Socket, dynamic loading not available in this perl.
         (You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports
         dynamic loading or has the Socket module statically linked into it.)

       What's wrong?

       Your interpreter doesn't know how to communicate with these extensions on its own.  A little glue
       will help.  Up until now you've been calling perl_parse(), handing it NULL for the second argument:

        perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, argc, my_argv, NULL);

       That's where the glue code can be inserted to create the initial contact between Perl and linked
       C/C++ routines.  Let's take a look some pieces of perlmain.c to see how Perl does this:

        static void xs_init (pTHX);

        EXTERN_C void boot_DynaLoader (pTHX_ CV* cv);
        EXTERN_C void boot_Socket (pTHX_ CV* cv);


        EXTERN_C void
        xs_init(pTHX)
        {
               char *file = __FILE__;
               /* DynaLoader is a special case */
               newXS("DynaLoader::boot_DynaLoader", boot_DynaLoader, file);
               newXS("Socket::bootstrap", boot_Socket, file);
        }

       Simply put: for each extension linked with your Perl executable (determined during its initial
       configuration on your computer or when adding a new extension), a Perl subroutine is created to
       incorporate the extension's routines.  Normally, that subroutine is named Module::bootstrap() and is
       invoked when you say use Module.  In turn, this hooks into an XSUB, boot_Module, which creates a Perl
       counterpart for each of the extension's XSUBs.  Don't worry about this part; leave that to the xsubpp
       and extension authors.  If your extension is dynamically loaded, DynaLoader creates
       Module::bootstrap() for you on the fly.  In fact, if you have a working DynaLoader then there is
       rarely any need to link in any other extensions statically.

       Once you have this code, slap it into the second argument of perl_parse():

        perl_parse(my_perl, xs_init, argc, my_argv, NULL);

       Then compile:

        % cc -o interp interp.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

        % interp
          use Socket;
          use SomeDynamicallyLoadedModule;

          print "Now I can use extensions!\n"'

       ExtUtils::Embed can also automate writing the xs_init glue code.

        % perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e xsinit -- -o perlxsi.c
        % cc -c perlxsi.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts`
        % cc -c interp.c  `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts`
        % cc -o interp perlxsi.o interp.o `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts`

       Consult perlxs, perlguts, and perlapi for more details.

Hiding Perl_
       If you completely hide the short forms of the Perl public API, add -DPERL_NO_SHORT_NAMES to the
       compilation flags.  This means that for example instead of writing

           warn("%d bottles of beer on the wall", bottlecount);

       you will have to write the explicit full form

           Perl_warn(aTHX_ "%d bottles of beer on the wall", bottlecount);

       (See "Background and PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT" in perlguts for the explanation of the "aTHX_". )  Hiding
       the short forms is very useful for avoiding all sorts of nasty (C preprocessor or otherwise)
       conflicts with other software packages (Perl defines about 2400 APIs with these short names, take or
       leave few hundred, so there certainly is room for conflict.)

MORAL
       You can sometimes write faster code in C, but you can always write code faster in Perl.  Because you
       can use each from the other, combine them as you wish.
