Manoj,

Welcome back on the alias :-)

I don''t think the interfaces are documented. However, refering to ZPL
should be a good place to start.
The ZPL code interacts with DMU and obviously it is using the DMU
interfaces.

However, I am not sure whether there is any gaurantee that they will not
change.

Thanks and regards,
Sanjeev.
