I bet it is. The mysql driver uses some weird check (in _translate_mysql_type) to find out whether or not a field is binary. Unless I'm dense the code in question may actually cause other problems as well, so I'd like to ask everyone with some MySQL knowledge to have a look at it. Also, the existing check may be version dependent. Vikram, which MySQL version are you running? regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ libdbi-users mailing list libdbi-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libdbi-users
