Answer 1

Sorry for the lateness but I did never had to embed perl code in C programs untill today ^^

I solved the issue in Unix/Linux systems (I think it is possible to create such feature in Windows since Vista) by creating a symbolic link pointing to the CORE folder of perl version...

ln -s $(perl -MConfig -e 'print $Config{archlib}')/CORE /usr/include/perl

In your project file, source code, simply add:

#include <perl/EXTERN.h>
#include <perl/perl.h>

...and I came from long list of notes and errors related to off_t and off64_t to a clean build result ^^
