Business::EDI::Spec(3) Object class for CSV-based U.N. EDI specifications

SYNOPSIS


use Business::EDI::Spec;

my $spec = Business::EDI::Spec->new('segment');

DESCRIPTION

CSV files originally from edi4r are included as part of Business::EDI. They are used to define the many different messages, segements, data elements, composite data elements, and codelists that are part of a given version of the U.N. specification.

The CSV spec files are composed differently for the different structures defined. So we have to parse them differently.
