DB::Appgen is a Perl interface which includes both function oriented and object oriented interfaces to manipulate data in APPGEN Custom Suite databases.

All this was made in about four hours including reading perlxstut manpage, so do not expect something pretty. Although it appears to be working OK in my tests.

I'll be doing some bigger data manipulations using this extension in the next couple of days and I will probably build some kind of higher level interface. If you don't see it on CPAN yet feel free to ask me about it.

Requirements:
Perl

Installation:

I failed to find a simple way in MakeMaker to give exact paths to libraries, so you need to create directory somewhere and put (or better symlink) the following files from your APPGEN developer kit into it under the following names:

libappgen_appl.a -> APPL.a
libappgen_strings.a -> strings.a
libappgen.a -> appgen.a

Then you need to edit Makefile.PM and point $appgenlibdir variable to your directory.
