Windows 2000
Active State Perl 5.6.1.638
DBI 1.37
DBD::Pg 0.95 - this is the only win32 binary I have been able to find
I would like to be able to execute a pgsql stored procedure from within
my perl program and retrieve the return value.
So far as I have been able to determine, that is not supported by even
the current version of DBD::Pg. Is that
correct? Is it supported by DBD::PgPP ?
If it is supported, is it likely to work under perl 5.6.1?
http://search.cpan.org/src/DBDPG/DBD-Pg-1.42/README.win32
implies not.
Though I've some experience building applications under AIX, I have none
with win32. I don't even have a C compiler
for win32. Before I enter that dark tunnel I'd like to know there's a
chance of some light at the other end.
And, at the risk of going OT, is there any point in trying to use
anything but the MS VC++ .NET compiler?
Thanks for your time and patience.
