I'm using DBI and DBD::Oracle. I'd like to be able to describe a table, but 'describe table' fails no matter how I try to pass it to DBI.
I feel certain that this is a FAQ and so apologise in advance. I have tried to track down an answer, but "describe" and "table" are hard words to seach for. Can anyone help me out? I just want the info describing the table that I can see in sqlplus.
