ChangeLog  view on Meta::CPAN

            dbdimp.ec and dbdattr.ec after bug report and proposed (but
            different) patch from Nick Osborn <nick@bibliotech.net>.  Pass
            $NTConfiguration as argument to find_informixdir_and_esql(), a
            problem afflicting NT builds first reported by Ti Lian Hwang
            <tilh@sin-co.sg.dhl.com>.  Add ix_ServerVersion, ix_BlobSupport
            and ix_StoredProcedure attributes to help with XPS support
            (Robert Wyrick <rob@wyrick.org> helped with XPS testing).
            Amend tests and documentation.
1999-11-16: Add Notes/environment.variables after a report from Claude
            Chartier <cbos@pophost.eunet.lu> that it would be helpful to
            have INFORMIXCONTIME etc documented.  Add Notes/web.servers for
            same reason; the notes need to be upgraded to discuss mod_perl
            for Apache.  Reinstate Bundle::DBD::Informix based on what is
            in the DBI 1.13 bundle, which seems to work (unlike the attempt
            at distributing Bundle::DBD::Informix 0.62 as a separate item,
            which fails).
1999-11-10: Add MD5 check sums for source code in MD5-DIGEST.  This will
            allow the DBD::Informix maintenance team to identify any
            changed source files.  Use the md5.verify script to ensure
            that the individual files are OK.  To check that MD5-DIGEST
            itself has not been modified, you run "perl md5.chksum

Notes/environment.variables  view on Meta::CPAN

    Controls format of date variables on output, and assumed format on
    input.

DBMONEY
DBFORMAT
    Should control format of MONEY values (and, arguably, DECIMAL and FLOAT
    and SMALLFLOAT values) when converted to a string.  However,
    DBD::Informix leaves FLOAT and SMALLFLOAT values as C doubles, and
    ignores it for DECIMAL and MONEY types.

INFORMIXCONRETRY
INFORMIXCONTIME
    You might need to have these set on some systems.  Such systems are
    most likely to be Windows 95/98/NT client machines connecting to a
    remote server.  I've never needed them on Unix; I'm not sure whether
    they work on Unix.
