Changes for version 2013.0118

  • 2013-01-18: Upload to PAUSE and CPAN. 2013-01-18: Workaround for CQ idsdb00247065, the error -1820 problem. You cannot reuse an SQL descriptor for LVARCHAR variables upon reopening the cursor unless the size for the LVARCHAR variables is set to the original size. So, store the original size for each LVARCHAR and reinstate that size in the SQL descriptor before the first FETCH (actually, after the OPEN). Reported this time by Robert Carew <Robert.Carew@mpi.govt.nz>, but also reported by a number of other people previously. 2012-05-19: Use $Config{so} as well as $Config{dlext} searching for ESQL/C libraries. Ticket 77286 at rt.cpan.org, submitted by n4zmz. 2011-09-25: Despite some misgivings, add a $dbh->ping method (using SELECT 1 FROM "informix".systables WHERE TabID = 1). The misgivings are for MODE ANSI databases; a transaction may be started. 2011-09-25: Modify dbdattr.ec, dbdimp.ec, dbdimp.h to provide optional UTF8 support. Patch from Sergey Leschenko <sergle.ua@gmail.com>. 2011-06-20: Modify Makefile.PL build of test to include @ldflags (reported and patched by Julian Bridle <julian.bridle@pacepetroleum.com>). 2011-06-16: Handle Perl regex metacharacters in $INFORMIXDIR (reported and patched by Julian Bridle <julian.bridle@pacepetroleum.com>).
