No Jeff, that's not what I am looking for. Let me explain the scenario in detail.
My application users Perl-DBI and at present I have encoded my username and password in the perl program. Now, as my testing is over, I would like to publish this code to my team so that they can checkout the latest version from the pvcs and use it. The problem comes now only. I want the application to use there username/password pair instead of mine. That's the reason, I don't want to put my hardcoded username and password in my file. There could be some ways as a way around which I have listed below but none of them is the best :- - *Put username and password through environment variable* : bad idea to use environment variables here - *Ask at runtime* : I would like my application to run without user input at runtime.
