FW: Binary build(s) of DBI, DBD::ODBC and DBD::Oracle available for ActivePerl 807

I'm posting this to dbi-announce to ensure people reading announcements get
this.


I've restructured a bit and am basing the directory structure upon the 
perl version, not the AS build number.  807 reports as 5.8.2, so

ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.2

Contains all the 5.8.2 specific versions.  You may directly download all the
files in that directory (say: c:\tmp) and run the following commands from
your command prompt:

ppm install c:\tmp\DBI.ppd
ppm install c:\tmp\DBD-ODBC.ppd
ppm install c:\tmp\DBD-Oracle.ppd


The following command lines should also work for those directly connected to
the net...see ActiveState's documentation on PPM regarding proxies, etc, if
this doesn't work:

ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.2/DBI.ppd
ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.2/DBD-Oracle.ppd
ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.2/DBD-ODBC.ppd
 
I *still* have plans for building more modules, but I haven't gotten 
to them yet.  I've just made it easier to build and put them up on my 
site, so that's a step.  Some of the other modules require database 
software, which may be an issue.  I do plan on looking into some 
obvious modules, but...my time is limited.

Regards,

Jeff
