My name is Ilya Sterin Email - [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've programmed in Perl, C, C++. Done various large scale projects for Ford Motor Company and a few in the Financial Industry. Preferred user-ID - ISTERIN I have a program written in C that parses CSV files (delimeter can be set) and writes out equivalent XML structured document. The program is complete and is being used by mine and other companies in XML development and system integration projects. I can create on XS interface to this module. I will also be responsible for maintaining and documenting this module. I've discussed this module with Matt Sergeant and he thought I should register and submit to CPAN. Not positive about the naming yet, but somewhere in the XML namespace. This module can be used as an extension to parsing other file formats and generating equivalent XML structure. I also discussed with PerlXML mailing list. In my understanding there are probably ways around by using three different modules, but this is a base for other files formats that can be transformed to XML. I believe that this is very important for the following reason. I've worked with system integration project for a while, and since XML is very much becoming a standard way to communicate, this module can be used to transform any existing format to XML without having to rewrite the entire program. I've used it to link four systems, each with different standards, buy using this module I was able to use one single program that in fact used this module to read different formats, transform to XML, and then use a common interface to update our db. Please let me know and I can start writting the XS interface as soon as possible. Ilya Sterin IDEAS Consulting
