RE: Problem with DBD::Sybase using Sybase IQ

Well said Raju!

Joe,

Here is an another example you can parse through param:

use strict;
use DBI qw(:sql_types);

my $dbh = DBI->connect( 'dbi:Oracle:orcl',
                        'jeffrey',
                        'jeffspassword',
                        {
                          RaiseError => 1,
                          AutoCommit => 0
                        }
                      ) || die "Database connection not made: $DBI::errstr";

my @names = ( "Larry%", "Tim%", "Randal%", "Doug%" );

my $sql = qq{ SELECT id, name, title, phone FROM employees WHERE name LIKE ? };
my $sth = $dbh->prepare( $sql );

for( @names ) {
  $sth->bind_param( 1, $_, SQL_VARCHAR );
  $sth->execute();

  my( $id, $name, $title, $phone );
  $sth->bind_columns( undef, \$id, \$name, \$title, \$phone );

  while( $sth->fetch() ) {
    print "$name, $title, $phone\n";
  }
}

$sth->finish();
$dbh->disconnect();


Thanks and kind regards
