I'm fairly aware of how the Remedy API works, since I'm the one who
contributed back the code to make it compile with the V6 API, and also the
ability to compile against the encryption libraries. I'm not quite sure
where you are getting your information about V7, however, because so far
in
our communications with remedy, they indicate that *all* our user clients
will have to be upgraded to the v7 user client, among other things, which
would appear to indicate that the V7 api is not backwards compatible. In
any case, as it appears no one else has gotten to V7 yet, and Stanford has
started a project to migrate to V7, I expect that one of my co workers or
I
will be contributing the V7 API code back too. ;)
Hi Quanah,
Great! Props for your v6 ARSPerl work! I like it a lot.
According to the V7 Compatibility matrix, the V6.3 and V6 user tools are all
supported against a v7 server (but of course without the v7 features such as
horizontal navigation fields and such). See:

That means (afaik) that all the standard API calls will still work. And also
I have worked with the current ARSPerl against a v7 server, although not in
production, and only with data manipulation calls.
I'd love to help out with getting ARSPerl ready for v7 if necessary;
although I do not have C-skills. If I could help out with testing on V7 or
getting docs up-to-date or something else, let me know.
Kind regards,
Michiel
