Hi Damian.
I'm not sure whether or not you'll be able to do anything useful with the
following error report:-
Using smart comments seems to provoke an error in my cheesy DBI.pm subclass
:_
(Using perl 5.8.0 on cygwin, using latest Smart::Comments ( down-loaded 3
days ago. ))
Error message :-
Can't bless non-reference value at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Intech/DBIx.pm line 46.
This is a cut-down test-case version. The database being connected to is a
SQL Server Database using ODBC.
As this DB/driver combination already exhibits non-standard, non-useful
behaviours in other ways, I suspect that this is just another one of them.
On the other hand it could be my cheesy DBI sub-classing at fault.
Unfortunately I don't have a viable database source other than SQL Server to
test against. DBD::CSV for one *doesn't* provoke this error,
but then again I'll never need to run any of my scripts against a CSV file.
-- test script
#!/usr/bin/perl

, AutoCommit => 0
}
) ;
--cutdown version of DBI sub-class package in use. The DBI->connect call
fails.
