ndll Library Description
mod_neko2.ndll Communicates with the Apache 2.2 web server.
mod_neko.ndll Communicates with the Apache 1.3 web server.
mysql.ndll Wraps the functionalities of the MySQL engine (the database must be
installed independently).
regexp.ndll Performs regular expression operations.
sqlite.ndll Wraps the functionalities of the SQLite engine, but also embeds the original
C library and; thus, no installation is required.
std.ndll Contains functionalities to access to the filesystem.
ui.ndll Contains functionalities to access user - interface related features on the
support operative systems.
zlib.ndll Manages compression and decompression of archives.
Even if the Neko VM is extremely fast in executing code, there are some rare circumstances where a
better optimization can be obtained using C libraries.
In Neko a primitive is a glue function that is used to bridge the C code into Neko. Primitives can be
accessed from haXe using the Loader class.
Suppose you have a helloworld.
