If you see Tim's posts on the dbi-users, why would you direct your question
to him, since he'll still be able to see it if you direct to dbi-users???  I
don't think anyone on any list likes any direct emails, so please forward
all non-personal questions to dbi users list.

It might still work, but it's best to recompile DBD::Oracle.  While you are
at it, might as well upgrade to the latest releases, plus recompiling with
OCI8 will have it's own benefits, like the LOB fetching with LongReadLen.

(Fwd) Question: Oracle 8.1.7 with Perl

Hi Tim,

I was looking at dbi-users and your name keeps
reappearing with answers so I thought I would direct
my question at you.

I just want to know if Perl 5.6 (is there such a
version or does this mean its version 5.006?) using
DBI v1.13 and DBD:Oracle 1.03 will still all work if I
upgrade the Oracle database from v7.3.4 to v8.1.7? 

If the answer is no, then what versions of Perl, DBI
and DBD:Oracle should I upgrade to so that they are
compliant to Oracle8.1.7? 

You must be a busy man, but I would appreciate it very
much if you can reply ASAP.

Thanks in advance.
