I need help on testing the database for errors. Basically im writing a perl
script to operate my database. When i open the database, i need it to return
an error code if successful. steps such as:
open database
check for error (did database open?)
if error print error message
else print successful.
close database
use DBI
$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:dbname","user","password");
$sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT username from MyTable");
(error checking here)
$sth->execute;
$dbh->disconnect;
Basically on the error checking part, if successful $errorcode = 0 or if
there is error $errorCode = 1;
Thank all,
Marbeen Felipe
