Building DBI on Solaris (2.9)

2004-06-04 Thread incansv
Problem: Makefile always uses gcc compiler -- Apologies if this is simple for gurus. I'm pretty happy writing Perl, but building/installing source libraries is a black art to me. I'm trying to install DBI on a Solaris 2.9 box. I have the Forte C compiler

Hi Mr. Bunce, I am a developer recently using Perl on one of my projects. I got a DBI question but couldn't find solution by searching the web. I'll greatly appreciate if you could help me out. I am trying to port a C code into Perl using your DBI module. The C code uses ODBC API

This link might help you get on the right track: http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI/DBI.pm#bind_param and look for a paragraph titled Data Types for Placeholders - that shows you what stuff can be put in that 3rd bind_param argument. HTH. Hardy Merrill [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/03/04 12:13PM

Hi Randal, I'm a relative newbie on Windoze XP, but in order to view the perldocs there I have to bring up a command prompt window and type 'perldoc DBI' (or whatever) and the window I get(done with 'more') is not searchable(with forward slash /) the way it is on *nix. Not having the search

Hi, after several days of investigations we found out that using the non-standard character set US7ASCII also affected the C++ programs. Setting the NLS_ORA33 variable solved the problem. Stephan -Original Message- From: Winkler, Stephan Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2004 16:39 To: [EMAIL

Thanks Jeff - didn't know about that, but the Active State documentation pages are very nice! One question - does the documentation for CPAN modules that I install get inserted into the Active State documentation? For example, I have DBI installed but I can't seem to locate it in the Active

Oh, and I forgot another nice trick. I have a local CGI that, given the name of a module, searches the @INC and does an on-the-fly pod2html on the pod. That gives me HTML access to docs for all installed modules regardless of whether they're in the ActiveState tree or not. -- Jeff
