It's called DBI-1.59_90 but it's actually 1.601.
=head2 Changes in DBI 1.601 (svn rev 10088), 16th Oct 2007
Fixed t/05thrclone.t to work with Test::More >= 0.71
thanks to Jerry D. Hedden and Michael G Schwern.
Fixed DBI for VMS thanks to Peter (Stig) Edwards.
Added client-side caching to DBD::Gofer. Can use any cache with
get($k)/set($k,$v) methods, including all the Cache and Cache::Cache
distribution modules plus Cache::Memcached, Cache::FastMmap etc.
Works for all transports. Overridable per handle.
Added DBI::Util::CacheMemory for use with DBD::Gofer caching.
It's a very fast and small strict subset of Cache::Memory.
=cut
The new client-side caching for DBD::Gofer is cool. One novel
consequence is that you can now add client-side caching to *any*
(gofer-compatible) application by just setting an environment variable:
DBI_AUTOPROXY='dbi:Gofer:transport=null;cache=1'
I'd appreciate any and all testing so I can make a full release this week.
Tim.
