Re: want to write a perl module for Statistics of pspp

[老邪]

HI, Duane
     Thanks for replying.
     and, i think i also need some documents of API of pspp C library? (if it exists).
     i just read source of PSPP::Wrapper, the way of it implement pspp function is 
1) make a tmp file by given data, and a block of pspp syntax
2) call pspp to handle that tmp file
3) save the result
     it's a way to call statistical procedures of pspp too. i was thinking that way before.
but i think if can call the C library of pspp directly in Perl, that will be better. so i
came here and asked for help :)
     thanks

Hi LaoXie,

You'd probably want to try using Perl XS.  See 'man perlxs'
and 'man perlxstut' for information and examples of how to
call C routines from Perl.
