=head1 NAME

OS2::DLL - access to DLLs with REXX calling convention.

=head2 NOTE

When you use this module, the REXX variable pool is not available.

See documentation of L<OS2::REXX> module if you need the variable pool.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

	use OS2::DLL;
	$emx_dll = OS2::DLL->load('emx');
	$emx_version = $emx_dll->emx_revision();

=head1 DESCRIPTION

=head2 Load REXX DLL

	$dll = load OS2::DLL NAME [, WHERE];

NAME is DLL name, without path and extension.

Directories are searched WHERE first (list of dirs), then environment
paths PERL5REXX, PERLREXX, PATH or, as last resort, OS/2-ish search 
is performed in default DLL path (without adding paths and extensions).

The DLL is not unloaded when the variable dies.

Returns DLL object reference, or undef on failure (in this case one can
get the reason via C<DynaLoader::dl_error()>).

=head2 Create a REXX DLL handle

	$dll = OS2::DLL->new( NAME [, WHERE] );

Same as L<C<load>|Load REXX DLL>, but croaks with a meaningful message on
failure.

=head2 Check for functions (optional):

	BOOL = $dll->find(NAME [, NAME [, ...]]);

Returns true if all functions are available.

=head2 Call external REXX function:

	$dll->function(arguments);

Returns the return string if the return code is 0, else undef.
Dies with error message if the function is not available.

=head1 ENVIRONMENT

If C<PERL_REXX_DEBUG> is set, emits debugging output.  Looks for DLLs
in C<PERL5REXX>, C<PERLREXX>, C<PATH>.
