If you do not want to include your parsing code to finance code library, then the best way would be just make a minimalistic perl module that calls you java program. Then you wont spend time to reimplementing this gnucash+F::Q stuff and just make you things done :)
Here is a good description of to call any internal program: http://perlmeme.org/faqs/system/system.html 2014-10-06 8:53 GMT-07:00 Derek Atkins <warl...@mit.edu>: > Hi, > > Please remember to CC gnucash-devel on all responses using your mailer's > reply-to-list or reply-all functionality.
