  5. Rama Architecture Winamp Perl lib c API thin c wrapper Perl DLL Perl script

  6. Required Development Resources • Winamp 2.77 (latest stable) • SDKs (or APIs rather) • Active State Perl • Win32 modules • GL modules

  7. Development Plan • Phase 1 (Hello World) Nov 12 • Jason & Dan • Build c/c++ DLL plug-in for Winamp • Learn Winamp API • Kevin & Tom • Build Perl DLL • Run Perl code in a Perl program

  8. Development Plan • Phase 1.5 (Understand World) Nov 19 • Kevin & Jason & Dan • Build Perl DLL plug-in for Winamp • Tom • Perl graphics

  9. Development Plan • Phase 2 (Explore World) Nov 19 • Dan & Tom • Perl graphics in Winamp through Perl DLL • Kevin & Jason • Develop end user API
