Gedcom is a standardized format for genealogic data exchange and serves as the foundation of GenealogyJ. To achieve a maximum level of compatibility GenJ reads and writes Gedcom files natively (no ex/import) and its internal representation of the data is very close to the original.

The Gedcom API is documented here since it's the access point for reports and 3rd party code that needs to access Gedcom-information and wants to utilize an existing object-oriented layer.
