Makefile.PL¶

  use Coro::MakeMaker qw(coro_args);
  # ... set up %args ...
  WriteMakefile (coro_args (%args));

XS¶

  #include "CoroAPI.h"
  BOOT:
    I_CORO_API ("YourModule");

API¶

This is just a small overview - read the Coro/CoroAPI.h header file in the distribution, and check the examples in EV/ and Event/*, or as a more real-world example, the Deliantra game server (which uses Coro::MakeMaker).

You can also drop me a mail if you run into any trouble.
