We have two excellent topics this month: VOIP with Asterisk+perl and Inline::C. Much thanks to our presenters Mike and David for volunteering.

As always, http://la.pm.org for the latest details. rsvp at facebook: http://www.facebook.com/events/145857175522341/ ==== LA.pm's next meeting What: Los Angeles Perl Mongers Meeting When: 7-9pm Date: Wednesday December 7, 2011 Where: Demand Media, 1299 Ocean, Santa Monica, CA Theme: Perl! Refreshments: Food and BEvERages provided by Demand Media RSVP: Responses always appreciated. Presentations: Mike Frager: VOIP with perl and asterisk/freepbx David Oswald: Inline::C, The Eminently Palatable Approach to XS Abstract: We will discuss installation, basic use, applications of use such as time optimization, memory optimization, unit testing of C code, linking in specialty C libraries, callbacks, and more. I'll include a brief discussion on Inline::CPP, which I took over co-maintainership on just a few days ago. === Venue Information Demand Media 1299 Ocean, 5th floor Flywheel conference room Santa Monica, CA Parking: Park in one of the SM Public Lots on 2nd -- #4 and #2 are closest to the building. I can provide parking vouchers for those buildings. ( Metered parking on Ocean is also an option, might be in the free evening zone by then?). I DO NOT have vouchers for the underground lot at 1299 -- but then it's only $5 to park there after 6pm. 1299 Ocean Demand has three locations in Santa Monica. You don't want to go to the 1333 Second St location, which is 2 blocks south. Come to 1299 Ocean. Then entrance is on Arizona between Ocean and Second. Elevators: I will have to ferry people up the elevators, I'll be in the lobby from 6:45-7. I'll also leave notice with the security guard so they can follow whatever building-level security protocol they have. Food & BEvERages: The pizza has been ordered, the soda fridge is scheduled to be freshly restocked and the beers should be on ice.

Message-ID: I realize that I covered a lot of ground in a short period of time. Here is a link to the slides and source code (hosted on box.com). I hope that they can serve as a point of reference for others interested in using the Inline::C and Inline::C++ modules in their own code. As a supplement to the existing documentation (Inline, Inline::C, Inline::CPP, perlguts, perlxstut, perlxs, perlcall, perlapi) my goal was for the presentation and accompanying slides to make the entry point less of a challenge. http://www.box.com/s/svecm9hq1tam27ggdjds Please let me know if you have trouble with the link. If a PDF version would be helpful I can upload one too. Thanks again for the opportunity to present!

What an excellent meeting we had last night. We had 25 mongers with a few new faces. Thank you David and Mike for presenting. You both gave presentations covering huge amounts of ground!
