Hi all I have a few questions that I have not seen anything in the archives
for. I have ADO2.1 installed on DBI 1.16
1. dbi:ADO supports setting Isolation Level but only as a number. Is there a
reason that it does not seem to use the ado_const's, eg adXactBrowse
2.dbi:ADO supports setting Connectiontimeout and CommandTimeout in the
connection string but I have discovered that ADO does not let a command
inherit its connections Command and Connection timeout values
see the following (also quoted below)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/dasdk/mdap4wc4.htm
"The CommandTimeout setting on a Connection object has no effect on the
CommandTimeout setting on a Command object on the same Connection; that is,
the Command object's CommandTimeout property does not inherit the value of
the Connection object's CommandTimeout value." </quote>
the upshot of which was a long query (over 9 minutes) was failing with a
timeout.
I have made a addition to my copy of ado.pm to add this to the %attr that
you can pass through on a prepare, and it seems to work.
3. Is there a reason that Stream support should not be added to ADO.pm. Has
anyone experimented with this
regards
Tim Wilson
