I'm not sure what your definition of "easy way" is.. Most of F::Q is a bunch of screen scrapers. So doing it in perl v java is just a matter of language. > "You would need to duplicate this functionality to convince GnuCash that > F::Q exists" > > R-do you mean re-write the code? i just would like to know what > structure is gnc looking for, so i could pretend have this structure No, I mean re-implement the gnucash<->F::Q interfaces. For example, you would need to replace gnc-fq-helper with a wrapper around your java application and have the input/output work "the same" so gnucash *thinks* it's still talking to F::Q. -derek > On Fri, Oct 3, 2014 at 12:40 PM, Derek Atkins <warl...@mit.edu> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Rafael Lima <ragp...@gmail.com> writes: >> >> [snip] >>> So, i develop a java program to do it, create a new source quote >>> module that just call my java code and put it on the library and >>> everything works fine. >> >> Is there any reason you didn't implement it as a PERL module behind >> F::Q?
