Uniform Portable Interface Language (UPIL)

UPIL (Uniform Portable Interface Language) is an XML-based markup language for describing the API of a software library, written in C, which is intended to be used by software written in other programming languages.

The UPIL language is used to describe the APIs of all the fundamental software libraries of the Frogans technology, including the FSDL software library.

UPIL also defines methods for generating wrappers for each programming language (currently PHP, Java, Python, C#, VB, Node.js, Ruby, and Pascal).
