Yes, once there's a development release including this (which I expect will be 5.35.8 due in just a few days now), I'll take a look at what can be done to dual-life this as a concept. It will require making a brand new distribution with a new .xs file. There may be possibility to reüse the current .pm file or that may need creating as well. Once I have an initial version I'll take a look and see how much copy-pasting I had to do to make it work, and whether some of that can be automated into some sort of autogeneration system to avoid needing to keep the two separate files in sync manually. -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk | https://metacpan.org/author/PEVANS http://www.leonerd.org.uk/ | https://www.tindie.com/stores/leonerd/Thread Previous | Thread Next
