Perl4 oraperl will not work with Perl5. A new database independent standard interface is being developed for Perl5.

An oracle module which uses that interface is also being developed. The oracle module includes an oraperl emulation interface. Other database drivers will be developed over time.

Alpha releases of this software are available from ftp.demon.co.uk in /pub/perl/db/ but are not recommended for production use at this time.

For more information and to keep informed about progress you can join the perldb mailing list by sending a message to perldb-interest-request_at_vix.com (it may take a few days to be processed).

All discussion related to this work should take place on the mailing list.

Tim.

p.s. comp.lang.perl was renamed comp.lang.perl.misc a while back. Received on Mon Sep 25 1995 - 00:00:00 CET
