=head1 NAME

XSLoader - Dynamically load C libraries into Perl code

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    package YourPackage;
    use XSLoader;

    XSLoader::load 'YourPackage', @args;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module defines a standard I<simplified> interface to the dynamic
linking mechanisms available on many platforms.  Its primary purpose is
to implement cheap automatic dynamic loading of Perl modules.

For more complicated interface see L<DynaLoader>.
