Bug#468951: RFP: libconvert-binary-c-perl -- preprocessor and parser for C type definitions
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Recent versions of Bioperl, a suite of perl modules for
bioinformatics, depend on the modules provided by
Convert-Binary-C. The Debian-Med packaging team would be very happy to
find a volunteer to prepare a Debian package for it. We can provide
support and sponsorship (but please check first with the pkg-perl team
if they would be interested to host the package as well).
A few files have a license with a kind of advertisement clause
requiring to add "Portions Copyright (c) 1989, 1990 James A. Roskind"
in proeminent places. Compatibility with the Perl dual license and the
DFSG remain to be investigated :(
Package name : libconvert-binary-c-perl
Version : 0.70
Upstream Author : Marcus Holland-Moritz
URL : http://search.cpan.org/~mhx/Convert-Binary-C/
License : Same as Perl itself, plus others (see below)
Programming Lang: Perl, C
Description : preprocessor and parser for C type definitions
Here are stubs for the control and copyright files:
Priority: optional
Homepage: http://search.cpan.org/~mhx/Convert-Binary-C/
Enhances: bioperl
Description: preprocessor and parser for C type definitions
Convert::Binary::C is a preprocessor and parser for C type definitions.
It is highly configurable and should support arbitrarily complex data
structures. Its object-oriented interface has pack and unpack methods
that act as replacements for Perl's pack and unpack and allow to use the
C types instead of a string representation of the data structure for
conversion of binary data from and to Perl's complex data structures.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT:
.
Without the effort expended by the ANSI C standardizing committee, I
would have been lost. Although the ANSI C standard does not include
a fully disambiguated syntax description, the committee has at least
provided most of the disambiguating rules in narratives.
.
Several reviewers have also recently critiqued this grammar, and/or
assisted in discussions during it's preparation. These reviewers are
certainly not responsible for the errors I have committed here, but
they are responsible for allowing me to provide fewer errors. These
colleagues include: Bruce Blodgett, and Mark Langley.
