29XS::APItest - Test the perl C API
30
31=head1 SYNOPSIS
32
33 use XS::APItest;
34 print_double(4);
35
36=head1 ABSTRACT
37
38This module tests the perl C API. Currently tests that C<printf>
39works correctly.
40
41=head1 DESCRIPTION
42
43This module can be used to check that the perl C API is behaving
44correctly. This module provides test functions and an associated
45test script that verifies the output.
46
47This module is not meant to be installed.
48
49=head2 EXPORT
50
51Exports all the test functions:
52
53=over 4
54
55=item B<print_double>
56
57Test that a double-precision floating point number is formatted
58correctly by C<printf>.
59
60 print_double( $val );
61
62Output is sent to STDOUT.
63
64=item B<print_long_double>
65
66Test that a C<long double> is formatted correctly by
67C<printf>. Takes no arguments - the test value is hard-wired
68into the function (as "7").
69
70 print_long_double();
71
72Output is sent to STDOUT.
73
74=item B<have_long_double>
75
76Determine whether a C<long double> is supported by Perl. This should
77be used to determine whether to test C<print_long_double>.
78
79 print_long_double() if have_long_double;
80
81=item B<print_nv>
82
83Test that an C<NV> is formatted correctly by
84C<printf>.
85
86 print_nv( $val );
87
88Output is sent to STDOUT.
89
90=item B<print_iv>
91
92Test that an C<IV> is formatted correctly by
93C<printf>.
94
95 print_iv( $val );
96
97Output is sent to STDOUT.
98
99=item B<print_uv>
100
101Test that an C<UV> is formatted correctly by
102C<printf>.
103
104 print_uv( $val );
105
106Output is sent to STDOUT.
107
108=item B<print_int>
109
110Test that an C<int> is formatted correctly by
111C<printf>.
112
113 print_int( $val );
114
115Output is sent to STDOUT.
116
117=item B<print_long>
118
119Test that an C<long> is formatted correctly by
120C<printf>.
121
122 print_long( $val );
123
124Output is sent to STDOUT.
125
126=item B<print_float>
127
128Test that a single-precision floating point number is formatted
129correctly by C<printf>.
130
131 print_float( $val );
132
133Output is sent to STDOUT.
