DESCRIPTION

 void ffi_pl_bundle_constant(const char *package, ffi_platypus_constant_t *c);

The first argument "package" is the name of the Perl package. The second argument "c" is a struct with function pointers that lets you define constants of different types. The first argument for each function is the name of the constant and the second is the value. If "::" is included in the constant name then it will be defined in that package space. If it isn't then the constant will be defined in whichever package called "bundle".

set_str

 c->set_str(name, value);
    

Sets a string constant.

set_sint

 c->set_sint(name, value);
    

Sets a 64-bit signed integer constant.

set_uint

 c->set_uint(name, value);
    

Sets a 64-bit unsigned integer constant.

set_double

 c->set_double(name, value);
    

Sets a double precision floating point constant.
