P4Perl
P4Perl
is a Perl module that provides an object-oriented API to Helix Core. Using
P4Perl
is faster than using the command-line interface in scripts, because
multiple command can be executed on a single connection, and because it
returns Helix Core responses
as Perl hashes and arrays.
The main features are:
- Get
Helix Core
data and forms in hashes and arrays.
- Edit
Helix Core
forms by modifying hashes.
- Run as many commands on a connection as required.
- The output of commands is returned as a Perl array.
- The elements of the array returned are strings or, where appropriate,
hash references.
