order

.
analyse
Checks for file with .c, .h or .xs extensions. Check is the module depends on any of the Inline:: modules or on ExtUtils::CBuilder or ExtUtils::ParseXS.
TODO:
How to recognize cases such as http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl-API/ and http://search.cpan.org/dist/Term-Size-Perl that generate the .c files during installation
In addition there are modules that can work without their XS part. E.g. Scalar-List-Utils, Net-DNS, Template-Toolkit For our purposes these all should be marked as "need C compiler" as they need it for their full functionality and speed.
kwalitee_indicators
No Kwalitee Indicator.
