OK, well I hope you'll find a lot has changed since the last time we used SQLite. Startup/shutdown of SC happens much faster now, MySQL added a horrible amount of startup/shutdown delay. Obviously, plugins that use MySQL-specific database features may need to be updated. > BTW, will the old SC code work with Perl 5.10?

But you can run the exe version of one, and use ActivePerl for the other. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
