I find the MSDN ODBC GetInfo docs useful additions to this list but since they switch locations so often and are slow to load I've placed a plain HTML version (with all the ActiveX stuff removed) at: http://www.vpservices.com/jeff/programs/SQL/docs/odbc-getinfo-msdn.html It has a link to the URL of the original at msdn.microsoft.com (at least the URL that works today). Another interesting link is the SWsoft opensource ODBC test suite at: http://www.mipt.sw.ru/en/products/ots/ > Also let it be specified by passing a code ref, in which case the > code ref is called with the relevant integer and expected to return > the corresponding value. That way you could get SQL::Parser to work > in the same way as any given database by simply doing like: > > $my_sql_parser->config( get_info => sub { $dbh->get_info(shift) } ) I get the general idea but don't have a full picture of how I'd implement that. Steffen, perhaps instead of bothering Tim and the list, I could correspond with you off-list to ask some clueless questions? Or on list is fine if there are others interested in this. -- Jeff
