NAME
Imager::Inline - using Imager with Inline::C.
SYNOPSIS
use Inline with => 'Imager';
use Inline C => <<'EOS';
Imager some_func(Imager::Color c, Imager::Fill f) {
Imager img = i_img_8_new(200, 200, 3);
/* fill with color */
i_box_filled(img, 0, 0, 199, 199, c);
/* inner area with fill */
i_box_cfill(img, 50, 50, 149, 149, f);
return img;
}

DESCRIPTION
Imager hooks into Inline's "with" syntax to make it easier to write Inline::C code that works with Imager, you can call Imager functions
without having to include headers or perform initialization.
Imager's Inline "with" support does the following:
o add the installed Imager include directory to INC
o add the Imager typemap to TYPEMAPS
o include the headers needed by Imager C extension modules.
o declare and initialize the Imager API function table pointer
o filter the supplied code to replace Imager's class names with those that Inline::C can handle.
LIMITATIONS
The filtering mechanism is global, it will replace the class names even inside string constants. If you need a string matching the name of
one of Imager's classes, like "Imager::Color" you will need to split it into 2 to use C's string pasting mechanism, for example: "Imager:"
":Color".
