I'm having a problem with bind_columns or possibly my understanding of the returned values. Using the syntax in the Cheetah book and at CPAN I get empty scalars when all my testing indicates there should be a values.
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 (from RPM), Perl 5.6.1 (RPM), DBI 1.30 (tarball), DBD-Pg-1.01 (tarball), and perl-CGI-2.752-34.99.6 (RPM) The connection and friends works in the same script pulling from the same table (but using a fetch). Using $sth->rows returns 1, and running trace at level 3 shows the binding is happening. When I print using any method I get empty scalars. Could I be handling the references incorrectly. I've never quite grokked them but I can follow instructions pretty well so I assume I should be getting something as output. A little more exploration just now and I get something when I use a $sth->dump_results ... too much. The dump results output and the print output. Sort of like the binding doesn't happen right away? Any ideas as to a bind_columns solution? TIA, Rod -- "Open Source Software - Sometimes you get more than you paid for..."
