Abstract:
:MODULEWRITER is a PERL object relational mapping (ORM) tool that automatically generates database specific application programming interfaces (APIs) for SQL databases. The APIs consist of a package of modules providing access to each table row and column. Methods for retrieving, updating and saving entries are provided, as well as other generally useful methods (such as retrieval of the highest numbered entry in a table). MODULEWRITER provides for the inclusion of user-written code, which can be preserved across multiple runs of the MODULEWRITER program.
