ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String(3)

NAME
ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String - A set of typemaps for STL std::strings

SYNOPSIS
  use ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String;
  # First, read my own type maps:
  my $private_map = ExtUtils::Typemaps->new(file => 'my.map');

  # Then, get the object map set and merge it into my maps
  $private_map->merge(typemap => ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String->new);

  # Now, write the combined map to an output file
  $private_map->write(file => 'typemap');

DESCRIPTION
"ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String" is an "ExtUtils::Typemaps" subclass that provides a set of mappings for C++ STL strings. These are:

  TYPEMAP
  std::string   T_STD_STRING
  std::string*  T_STD_STRING_PTR

  INPUT
  T_STD_STRING
      $var = std::string( SvPV_nolen( $arg ), SvCUR( $arg ) );

  T_STD_STRING_PTR
      $var = new std::string( SvPV_nolen( $arg ), SvCUR( $arg ) );

  OUTPUT
  T_STD_STRING
      $arg = newSVpvn( $var.c_str(), $var.length() );

  T_STD_STRING_PTR
      $arg = newSVpvn( $var->c_str(), $var->length() );

METHODS
These are the overridden methods:

  new
Creates a new "ExtUtils::Typemaps::STL::String" object. It acts as any other "ExtUtils::Typemaps" object, except that it has the string type maps initialized.
