Ah, okay. I'm happy to drop the "&& $] >= 5.008009" (which I did earlier) so it'll run with 5.8.1+, and see what happens. > PS - I'm currently working on bringing PERINTERP and DBIS into the > Brave New World of MY_CXT. Wonderful! I presume that'll cause an API change that'll require compiled drivers to be recompiled (ie. we'd bump DBISTATE_VERSION so check_version() will croak). It's been many years since a DBI upgrade has required that (1998 as far as I can tell from the Changes file). Tim.Thread Previous | Thread Next
