It would be so useful to be able to obtain output from a query in a form that is easier to manipulate and work with than the standard Sybase output.</p> <p><em>Edited to add</em>:<br /> OK, so I've realised that sybperl.pl and sql.pl are available, but I'm having trouble finding any decent documentation on these, whereas DBI is very well documented on the Web.</p> Sat, 19 Jan 2008 11:58:09 +0000 Robhogg comment 612 at http://www.talis.com/tdn http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1723 <p>I was wondering if it would be possible for us to have a version of Perl with Unicode, i.e. the latest stable release of Perl 5.8.</p> <p>I'm not asking for a version to replace our existing Perl (which would mean testing all existing Perl scripts): it would be installed somewhere differently. I also don't expect to be provided with any of the Talis routines - I guess anyone on TDN who was interested could help contribute.</p> <p>I have already compiled a version of Perl on our servers at Sheffield to access our University's Oracle system, but I don't have access to the Sybase drivers. I think it would be good to have the DBI interface. It would also be good to have access to the full set of standard modules, which for some reason don't appear in the Talis-supplied Perl.</p> <p><a href="http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1723">read more</a></p> http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1723#comments Talis Library System Wed, 7 Mar 2007 17:04:24 +0000 ABUSSEY 1723 at http://www.talis.com/tdn
