.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
SVN::Base is a module importing the subversion perl bindings raw
symbols created by swig, into proper namespace and make them easier to
use.
.PP
It will also find the accessors for members of a C struct, create an
simpler accessor function like \f(CW\*(C`$data\->field()\*(C'\fR and
\&\f(CW\*(C`$data\->field($new_value)\*(C'\fR.
.PP
Once you understand the convention of subversion functions in perl
bindings, you could look at the subversion api and write them in perl.
The \s-1API\s0 is available in the source header files or online at
http://svn.collab.net/svn\-doxygen/.
.SH "INTERNALS"
.IX Header "INTERNALS"
The perl bindings of swig wraps raw functions into different perl
modules, for example, SVN::_Core, SVN::_Repos. Upon import, SVN::Base
bootstrap the requested module if it's not yet loaded, and iterate
over the symbols provided in that module, it them puts the function
with prefix trimmed in the namespace of the caller for this import.
.PP
The 3rd through the last parameter is a list of symbol endings that
you wish for SVN::Base not to import into your namespace.  This is useful
for cases where you may want to import certaion symbols differently than
normally.
.SH "CAVEATS"
.IX Header "CAVEATS"
SVN::Base consider a function as structure member accessor if it is
postfixed ``_get'' or ``_set''. Real functions with this postfixes
will need extra handling.
