NAME
PAR::Filter::Bytecode - Bytecode filter
SYNOPSIS
PAR::Filter::Bytecode->apply(\$code); # transforms $code
DESCRIPTION
This filter uses B::Bytecode to turn the script into comment-free, architecture-specific Perl bytecode, and uses ByteLoader to load back on execution.
For pp users, please add an extra -M option, like this:
pp -f Bytecode -M ByteLoader
Otherwise, the implicit dependency on ByteLoader will not be detected.
CAVEATS
This backend exhibits all bugs listed in B::Bytecode, and then some.
Bytecode support is considered to be extremely fragile on Perl versions earlier than 5.8.1, and is still far from robust (as of this writing).
