I have just released DBD::Sybase 1.05 to CPAN and to
http://www.peppler.org/
This version fixes a number of subtle bugs, and includes a few slight
behavior changes - as usual it is recommended that you test your
applications/scripts with this new version before putting it into
production.
>From the CHANGES file:
Release 1.05
BEHAVIOR CHANGE - $dbh->{LongReadLen} must now be called
before $dbh->prepare(). Previously you could call this after
the $dbh->prepare() but before the $sth->execute().
Install private statement handle methods for TEXT/IMAGE handling
to avoid $h->func() calls, and update documentation.
Implement experimental BLK API via prepare/execute loop.
Change default "AutoCommit" off mode from explicit transactions
to using the "chained" mode if it is available.
Add $sth->syb_describe() call, taken from Sybase::CTlib's
ct_describe().
Add ISO8601 date/time format for output.
Fix $sth->finish() behavior when syb_flush_finish is turned on.
Changed do { } while($sth->{syb_more_results}); idiom to use
redo instead.
Better/more consistent handling of multiple sth on a single dbh,
and new test file.
Bugs Fixed:
580 - Binding binary/varbinary values to placeholders sometimes
fails.
575 - Fails three tests under Tru-64.
577 - perl Makefile.PL fails if umask is 0.
578 - Better warning for calling $dbh->{LongReadLen} if $dbh is busy.
572 - Minor documentation update for bind_param().
