NAME

SPVM - SPVM Language

CAUTHION

SPVM is not yet 1.0 release. SPVM is quit often changed without warnings until I feel the implementation is enough good.

SYNOPSIS

Write a SPVM Module:

# lib/SPVM/MyMath.spvm
class MyMath {
  static method sum : int ($nums : int[]) {

    my $total = 0;
    for (my $i = 0; $i < @$nums; $i++) {
      $total += $nums->[$i];
    }

    return $total;
  }
}

Call the SPVM method from Perl:

# sum.pl
use strict;
use warnings;
use FindBin;
use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib";

use SPVM 'MyMath';

# Call method
my $total = SPVM::MyMath->sum([3, 6, 8, 9]);

print "$total\n";
