p5-OpenMP::Simple

This module will provide Inline::C related things with conveniences for building out OpenMP power subs and runtime things. It is a goal to provide a very simple stepping stone that leads developers towards more advanced XS typedefs and other binding options, and if needed, PDL.

It's happening! See code for current state, feedback needed!

Current thought: OpenMP::Simple should basically be the encapsulation of:

  • Inline::C+Alien::OpenMP (with omp.h + auto_include)
  • an addition "auto_include" that defines some helpful macros and utility functions

Example of things that will be provided to make it easier to blend OpenMP decorated Inline::C into Perl programs:

  • C macros that work with environmental variables managed by OpenMP::Environment, so that the OpenMP is responsive to the process' %ENV in a manner similar to running a compiled binary (here we're dealing with shared libraries prepared by Inline::C)
  • Simplified C functions that are make it as easy as possible to convert regularized data structures into their pure C equivalent (e.g., a 2D Perl array reference of floating point values)
