FWIW, DBD::Informix uses trace levels from about 3 to 9 (leaving 1 and 2 for DBI output only). Whether that matters is another issue, but 4 bits would be preferred (though three is not the end of the world). Unless you have a use for those 2 bits at the back of your mind... -- Jonathan Leffler <[email protected]> #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix - v2008.0513 - http://dbi.perl.org "Blessed are we who can laugh at ourselves, for we shall never cease to be amused."
