This module provides a CodeGenerator for Petal that inherits almost
everything from Petal::CodeGenerator but modifies how expressions are
dealt with. Petal normally includes code like this
$hash->get( "not:user" )
in the compiled template. This means the path has to be parsed and
interpreted at runtime. Using Petal::CodePerl, Petal will now produce this
! ($hash->{"user"})
which will be much faster.
It uses Parse::RecDescent to parse the PETALES expressions which makes it
a bit slow to load the module but this won't matter much unless you have
turned off caching. It won't matter at all for something like Apache's
mod_perl.
