DBD::Oracle v1.45_00 on its way to CPAN

After a little bout of hibernation, a new trial version of DBD::Oracle 
has been churned out.

This release is mostly about Martin J. Evans going all ninjawesome on 
minor bug fixes, as well as paving the way for an upcoming refactoring / 
speed boost of /ora_verbose/.

As usual, the new version will be soaked for at least 2 weeks before it 
will turn into its fit-for-general-consumption v1.46 incarnation. 
Testers, please give this baby a whirl.

And, also as usual, the full changelog follows for the curious minded.

|1.45_00   2012-06-21|

|||[CHANGE IN BEHAVIOUR]|
|||- In future versions of DBD::Oracle ora_verbose will be changed|
|||so that it is simply a switch to turn DBI's DBD tracing on or off.|
|||A true value will turn it on and a false value will turn it off.|
|||DBI's "DBD" tracing was not available when ora_verbose was created|
|||and ora_verbose adds an additional test to every trace test.|
|||[BUG FIXES]|
|||- Fixed RT76695 - offset passed to ora_fetch_scroll should not affect|
|||normal fetches (Martin J. Evans)|
|||- Fixed RT76410 - fetch after fetch absolute always returns|
|||the same row (Martin J. Evans);|
|||- Fixed RT75721 - does not build with Oracle 9.2 (Martin J. Evans)|
|||- Fixed RT71343 - Oracle 9i does not have OCI_ATTR_TAF_ENABLED|
|||or OCI_ATTR_RESERVED_15/16 so cannot build (Martin J. Evans)|
|||- skip 24implicit_utf8.t if chr set is not UTF-8 (Martin J. Evans)|
|||- Fixed RT76268 - ora_taf_sleep was documented as taf_sleep by|
|||accident. There was no way to stop the TAF reconnect attempts.|
|||If you want to try another connect attempt in your taf handler you|
|||now need to return OCI_FO_RETRY from it. (Martin J. Evans)|
|||[MISCELLANEOUS]|
|||- minor change to confusing debug output for input parameters|
|||(Martin J. Evans)|
|||- RT72989 - add note to trouble shooting guide re this RT and|
|||Module::Runtime (Martin J. Evans)|


Enjoy,
