Jeff,
one new issue with 1.06.
o line 297 of the generated Makefile contains
@$(NOOP)
but those are spaces leading up to it instead of a tab. The line at fault is
actually Makefile.PL line 427.
o the problem I reported (email subject line) still exists after I fixed above
and installed 1.06. You are using Perl 5.8.0 on Windows whereas I am using
Perl 5.6.1 on Linux. Here is the relevant stuff:
martin /tmp-> perl -e 'use DBD::ODBC; print $DBD::ODBC::VERSION, "\n";'
1.06
martin /tmp-> perl -e 'use DBI;print $DBI::VERSION, "\n";'
1.37
martin /tmp-> perl --version
This is perl, v5.6.1 built for i686-linux
martin /tmp-> cat y.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use DBI;
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:testviagamb",
"Fred",
"Bloggs");
martin /tmp-> ./y.pl
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/DBI.pm line 584.
DBI connect('testviagamb','Fred',...) failed: at ./y.pl line 5
I've got identical stuff (DBI, DBD::ODBC, unixODBC, ODBC driver) installed on
another Linux machine which runs Perl 5.8.0 and it works there OK.
This is not affecting me personally, I just thought it needed reporting.
