Hi Martin,

first answer.

As far as I know SQL command concatenation is not possible using many
SQL interfaces when using the native bind mechanism. Oracle OCI
does NOT support it, and if I remember correctly, it is also not

If it works for, say, mysql, you should consider it as a bug.

So please don't use ';' to concatenate SQL queries via Perl DBI!

Accepted.

The major issue which is not really clear for me is the transaction
handling if you use more than one table. You can use different types of
backends for tables in one database. So how should the transaction stuff
work under such circumstances? This is the reason why I don't use mysql.
If somebody can explain this to me then I would use mysql too.

this is a good questions ;)

This depends on the "transaction isolation level" that is set for the database instance. Mysql supports all levels, but only for InnoDB. Oracle supports all levels, of course. Please google for the term and you will get some information about it.

We still use BDB. If I remember correctly then Michael Konietzka requested such a change some time ago too. Does it be enough if I change "Type=BDB" to "Type=InnoDB"? If this makes sense then I would this.
