Howdy,
I have a question from one of our developers that's been bugging me and I
can't find an answer. Given this v1.37 DBI code fragement:
while ( my ($projectno,$description,$dateclosed) = $sth->fetchrow_array )
{
print "$projectno";
print "$description";
print "$dateclosed";
print "\n";
}
...I keep getting a "Use of uninitialized value in string" message on the
print of the $dateclosed variable, whenever the corresponding Oracle DB
column is NULL. And you've already figured out that the program is run with
"-W". When the "-W" is dropped, no message.
This has got to be simple, but a read through the DBI FAQ, the index of
Tim's book, and Google, and I'm still unable to provide a simple answer
that's probably staring me in the face, other than "Drop the -W".
How do others deal with this?
TIA,
Rich
