-Design of SDL::Rect +Threaded XS callback finally gets solved.
-you say things,
-I hear,
-but don't listen,
+Dragged down from the lofty isles,
+into the guts and gore of the monster,
+a welcoming cringe in the gut approaches.

-you show things,
-I see,
-but don't understand,
+So I was planning staying silent until an exam I had was done. But new developers on IRC (j_king, felix and ruoso) pull me back in. Which is a good thing ... I suppose ... because we finally have threaded callbacks for timer and audiospec to work. ruoso++ for this major contribution. If you remember this was the problem we were having.
-you write things,
-I read,
-but don't know.

-Lately we have been working on cleaning up the XS name spaces of SDL perl. After some bumps and falls we came up with a separated Rect module. Rect is one of the most simple C struct as shown below.
+The new callbacks capability in audiospec allow you to procedurally generate sound now. If you would like a simple example take a look at t/core_audiospec.t. However a more fun example may be ruoso++'s tecla (a game for toddlers). Myself and Garu think it is a work of art but that is only because we are toddlers.
-
+On a side note some tickets on RT have also received some love ( after 3 or 4 years ... but nonetheless). TonyC++ sorry for the long time in response.
-Using the awesome perlobject.map as a reference I was able to create a blessed perl object in XS. So now SDL::Rect->new(...) gave us a blessed reference ready to go. And as an icing it would destroy itself properly no matter where it was used. But once I brought it into our existing code base, garu pointed out the extending it was a little bit of a mess. So far to extend Rect we have to something like below. Any comment or advice would be much appreciated.

-Have at it I am a big boy. You can grab the code like this.
-Only If you don't already have a local git repo:
-
-
mkdir SDL
-cd SDL
-git init .
-Then do this or skip to this if you already have a local git repo
-
git pull git://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl.git experimental
