It hasn't been touched in a while. There seemed to be problems when using it with a connection pool. And a memory leak has been reported as well. So it's probably only suited for simple batch scripts. Of course the source is still available ... Another possibility might be to subclass the DBD::ODBC classes. If you get enough information about statement parameters and cursors, then it could be possible to convert TIME and DATE values between INTERNAL and ISO inside the driver. This doesn't help with date literals inside SQL. > PS: Is there any chance the ODBC driver will support > different date/time > formats in the future? I don't think so.
