=head1 NAME

OS2::PrfDB - Perl extension for access to OS/2 setting database.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use OS2::PrfDB;
  tie %settings, OS2::PrfDB, 'my.ini';
  tie %subsettings, OS2::PrfDB::Sub, 'my.ini', 'mykey';

  print "$settings{firstkey}{subkey}\n";
  print "$subsettings{subkey}\n";

  tie %system, OS2::PrfDB, SystemIni;
  $system{myapp}{mykey} = "myvalue";


=head1 DESCRIPTION

The extension provides both high-level and low-level access to .ini
files.

=head2 High level access

High-level access is the tie-hash access via two packages:
C<OS2::PrfDB> and C<OS2::PrfDB::Sub>. First one supports one argument,
the name of the file to open, the second one the name of the file to
open and so called I<Application name>, or the primary key of the
database.

  tie %settings, OS2::PrfDB, 'my.ini';
  tie %subsettings, OS2::PrfDB::Sub, 'my.ini', 'mykey';

One may substitute a handle for already opened ini-file instead of the
file name (obtained via low-level access functions). In particular, 3
functions SystemIni(), UserIni(), and AnyIni() provide handles to the
"systemish" databases. AniIni will read from both, and write into User
database.

=head2 Low-level access

Low-level access functions reside in the package C<OS2::Prf>. They are

=over 14

=item C<Open(file)>

Opens the database, returns an I<integer handle>.

=item C<Close(hndl)>

Closes the database given an I<integer handle>.

=item C<Get(hndl, appname, key)>

Retrieves data from the database given 2-part-key C<appname> C<key>.
If C<key> is C<undef>, return the "\0" delimited list of C<key>s,
terminated by \0. If C<appname> is C<undef>, returns the list of
possible C<appname>s in the same form.

=item C<GetLength(hndl, appname, key)>

Same as above, but returns the length of the value.

=item C<Set(hndl, appname, key, value [ , length ])>

Sets the value. If the C<value> is not defined, removes the C<key>. If
the C<key> is not defined, removes the C<appname>.

=item C<System(val)>

Return an I<integer handle> associated with the system database. If
C<val> is 1, it is I<User> database, if 2, I<System> database, if
0, handle for "both" of them: the handle works for read from any one,
and for write into I<User> one.

=item C<Profiles()>

returns a reference to a list of two strings, giving names of the
I<User> and I<System> databases.

=item C<SetUser(file)>

B<(Not tested.)> Sets the profile name of the I<User> database. The
application should have a message queue to use this function!

=back

=head2 Integer handles

To convert a name or an integer handle into an object acceptable as
argument to tie() interface, one may use the following functions from
the package C<OS2::Prf::Hini>:

=over 14

=item C<new(package, file)>

=item C<new_from_int(package, int_hndl [ , filename ])>

=back

=head2 Exports

SystemIni(), UserIni(), and AnyIni().
