SPVM::Document::ExchangeAPI - SPVM Exchange API

Description

SPVM Exchange API is APIs to convert Perl data structures to/from SPVM data structures, and call SPVM Method from Perl.

Loading SPVM Module

If you load SVPM module from Perl, use the following syntax.

use SPVM 'Foo';

Suppose the following SPVM/Foo.spvm is placed on a module search path.

# SPVM/Foo.spvm
class Foo {
  static method sum : int ($x1 : int, $x2 : int) {
    return $x1 + $x2;
  }
}

If you load SPVM Foo::Bar module, do the following.

use SPVM 'Foo::Bar';

Suppose the following SPVM/Foo/Bar.spvm is placed on a module search path.

# SPVM/Foo/Bar.spvm
class Foo::Bar {
  static method sum : int ($x1 : int, $x2 : int) {
    return $x1 + $x2;
  }
}

use SPVM MODULE_NAME compile the SPVM module and the dependent modules.

Note that at this point a SPVM runtime has not yet been created.

A default SPVM runtime is created the first time you call a method of SPVM module or call a function or method of the Exchange API.

Calling SPVM Method

The method of SPVM module can be called from Perl directory.

Calling SPVM Class Method

Let's call SPVM class method from Perl.

use SPVM 'Foo';

my $total = SPVM::Foo->sum(1, 2);

The definition of Foo module is the following.

# SPVM/Foo.spvm
class Foo {
  static method sum : int ($x1 : int, $x2 : int) {
    return $x1 + $x2;
  }
}

If the number of arguments does not match the number of arguments of the SPVM method, an exception occurs.

The Perl values of the arguments are converted to the SPVM values by the rule of argument convertion.

If the type is non-conforming, an exception occurs.

The SPVM return value is converted to a Perl return value by the rule of return value convertion.

The SPVM exception is converted to a Perl exception.

Calling SPVM Instance Method

Let's call SPVM instance method from Perl.

use SPVM 'Foo';

my $foo = SPVM::Foo->new;

my $total = $foo->sum(1, 2);

The definition of Foo module is the following.

# SPVM/Foo.spvm
class Foo {
  static method new : Foo () {
    return new Foo;
  }

  method sum : int ($x1 : int, $x2 : int) (
    return $x1 + $x2;
  }
}

Argument Conversion

Perl arguments are converted to SPVM arguments in the following rules.

Argument general exception

If the count of given arguments is less than the count of the arguments of the method, an exception occurs.

If the count of given arguments is more than the count of the arguments of the method, an exception occurs.

Perl Scalar to SPVM byte

If the SPVM argument type is byte, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM byte value using SvIV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(int8_t)SvIV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : byte) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(12);

Perl Scalar to SPVM short

If the SPVM argument type is short, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM short value using SvIV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(int16_t)SvIV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : short) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(12);

Perl Scalar to SPVM int

If the SPVM argument type is int, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM int value using SvIV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(int32_t)SvIV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : int) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(12);

Perl Scalar to SPVM long

If the SPVM argument type is long, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM long value using SvIV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(int64_t)SvIV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : long) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(12);

Perl Scalar to SPVM float

If the SPVM argument type is float, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM float value using SvNV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(float)SvNV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : float) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(1.2);

Perl Scalar to SPVM double

If the SPVM argument type is double, Perl scalar is converted to SPVM double value using SvNV of perlapi

The conversion logic is

(double)SvNV(perl_scalar)

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : double) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo(1.2);

Perl Scalar to SPVM String

If the SPVM argument type is string, the given Perl scalar is converted by the following rules.

If any of the following rules does not match, an exception occurs.

Perl Non-Reference Scalar to SPVM String

If the SPVM argument type is string, the given Perl non-ref scalar is converted to SPVM::BlessedObject::String object.

The given non-ref scalar value is assumed to a Perl decoded string, and is converted to UTF-8 bytes.

If the given non-ref scalar value is Perl undef, it is converted to Perl undef.

And the following "Perl SPVM::BlessedObject::String to SPVM String" conversion is contined.

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : string) { ... }
}

# Perl
SPVM::My->foo("あいう");

Perl SPVM::BlessedObject::String to SPVM String

No conversion occurs.

Perl can have SPVM string itself as SPVM::BlessedObject::String object. This object is created by such as "new_string", "new_string_from_bin", or got as a return value of SPVM method.

If the given value is Perl undef, it is converted to SPVM undef

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : string) { ... }
}

# Perl
my $string = SPVM::new_string("あいう");
SPVM::My->foo($string);

Perl SPVM::BlessedObject::Class to SPVM Class

No conversion occurs.

Perl can have SPVM class object itself as a object which inherits SPVM::BlessedObject::Class. This object is created by a contructor such as SPVM::Int->new, SPVM::MyClass->new.

If the given value is Perl undef, it is converted to SPVM undef.

If class name is different, an exception occurs.

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : SPVM::Int) { ... }
}

# Perl
my $value = SPVM::Int->new(5);
SPVM::My->foo($value);

Perl SPVM::BlessedObject to SPVM Any Object

No conversion occurs.

Perl can have SPVM object itself as a SPVM::BlessedObject object. This object is created by a contructor or functions of exchange API such as SPVM::Int->new, SPVM::MyClass->new, SPVM::new_int_array.

If the given value is Perl undef, it is converted to SPVM undef.

Example:

# SPVM method definition
class My {
  static method foo : void ($value : object) { ... }
}

# Perl
my $value = SPVM::Int->new(5);
SPVM::My->foo($value);

Functions

Funtions which create SPVM datas and convert SVPM datas to/from Perl data.

new_byte_array

my $spvm_nums = SPVM::new_byte_array([1, 2, 3]);

Convert a Perl array reference to a SPVM byte[] array. Return value is SPVM::BlessedObject::Array object which wraps the SPVM array.

If the first argument is a undef value, the return value is a undef value.

new_byte_array_len

my $spvm_nums = SPVM::new_byte_array_len([1, 2, 3]);

Create a new SPVM byte[] array with length. The values of elements is zeros. Return value is SPVM::BlessedObject::Array object which wraps the SPVM array.

The lenght must be greater than or equal to zero. Otherwise an exception will occur.

my $spvm_byte_array = SPVM::new_byte_array_from_bin($perl_binary);

Convert a Perl Binary Data to SPVM byte[] object. Return value is SPVM::BlessedObject::Array object which wraps the SPVM array.

Thg Perl binary data is interpreted as 8-bit signed integers. The created array length is automatically calcurated from the Perl binary data.

If the first argument is undef, undef is returned.

You can use simple ascii codes as Perl binary data.

my $perl_binary ="abc";
my $spvm_byte_array = SPVM::new_byte_array_from_bin($perl_binary);

or UTF-8 bytes.
