37  =head1 DESCRIPTION  =head1 DESCRIPTION
38    
39  This module will read CDS/ISIS databases and create hash values out of it.  This module will read ISIS databases created by DOS CDS/ISIS, WinIsis or
40  It can be used as perl-only alternative to OpenIsis module.  IsisMarc. It can be used as perl-only alternative to OpenIsis module which
41    seems to depriciate it's old C<XS> bindings for perl.
42    
43    It can create hash values from data in ISIS database (using C<to_hash>),
44    ASCII dump (using C<to_ascii>) or just hash with field names and packed
45    values (like C<^asomething^belse>).
46    
47    Unique feature of this module is ability to C<include_deleted> records.
48    It will also skip zero sized fields (OpenIsis has a bug in XS bindings, so
49    fields which are zero sized will be filled with random junk from memory).
50    
51    It also has support for identifiers (only if ISIS database is created by
52    IsisMarc), see C<to_hash>.
53    
54    This module will always be slower than OpenIsis module which use C
55    library. However, since it's written in perl, it's platform independent (so
56    you don't need C compiler), and can be easily modified. I hope that it
57    creates data structures which are easier to use than ones created by
58    OpenIsis, so reduced time in other parts of the code should compensate for
59    slower performance of this module (speed of reading ISIS database is
60    rarely an issue).

468  # Probably direct usage is better!  It has ability to convert characters (using C<hash_filter>) from ISIS
469  #  database before creating structures enabling character re-mapping or quick
470    fix-up of data.
471    
472    This function returns hash which is like this:
473    
474      $hash = {
475        '210' => [
476                   {
477                     'c' => 'New York University press',
478                     'a' => 'New York',
479                     'd' => 'cop. 1988'
480                   }
481                 ],
482        '990' => [
483                   '2140',
484                   '88',
485                   'HAY'
486                 ],
487      };
488    
489    You can later use that hash to produce any output from ISIS data.
490    
491    If database is created using IsisMarc, it will also have to special fields
492    which will be used for identifiers, C<i1> and C<i2> like this:
493    
494      '200' => [
495                 {
496                   'i1' => '1',
497                   'i2' => ' '
498                   'a' => 'Goa',
499                   'f' => 'Valdo D\'Arienzo',
500                   'e' => 'tipografie e tipografi nel XVI secolo',
501                 }
502               ],
503    
504    This method will also create additional field C<000> with MFN.

563    
564  This module has been very lightly tested. Use with caution and report bugs.  Some parts of CDS/ISIS documentation are not detailed enough to exmplain
565    some variations in input databases which has been tested with this module.
566    When I was in doubt, I assumed that OpenIsis's implementation was right
567    (except for obvious bugs).
568    
569    However, every effort has been made to test this module with as much
570    databases (and programs that create them) as possible.
571    
572    I would be very greatful for success or failure reports about usage of this
573    module with databases from programs other than WinIsis and IsisMarc. I had
574    tested this against ouput of one C<isis.dll>-based application, but I don't
575    know any details about it's version.
