PERL Interface for Switchvox Extend API

If you are working in PERL, check out Digium’s official Switchvox Extend API PERL library. Click on the link below to head over to CPAN, get familiar with the documentation, and download the easy-to-install PERL library files.

If you’re familiar with PERL but would like to work in another language, you still might like to check out the PERL API so that you can quickly duplicate it in that other language. If you write a client library in a language that we don’t already have available, please tell us about it.

Voice in my Head:  “Yes.”

“So what’s your point?”

ViMH:  “My point is, that if you tell anyone you’re a programmer, then you’re going to be *that* guy.  So don’t do it.”

“Okay, okay, I get it.”

I’m not a programmer, I’m a business major.  I’m smart enough to configure Switchvox for anything I want to do, but I wasn’t really sure how I was going to take advantage of any of the new API capabilities in SMB 4.0.  To find out how difficult it would be to work with, I needed to contrive a problem, and solve it.  Read on to see what happened.
