| Subject: | patch to allow compilation under Windows with Sybase ASE 15 |
The Makefile.PL checks whether the libraries are named "libct" or
"libsybct", but then ignores that information for Windows, VMS and
cygwin. Also it seems it attempts to change -lct.lib to -lsybct.lib,
while it should be changing -llibct.lib to -llibsybct.lib. I believe.
Next problem is that the .lib files do not seem to contain the "Sybase
Client-Library/xx" string so you can't get the version from there. If I
understand things right, the version is included in the name of the
directory (at least it seems to be in my recent Sybase instalation:
"D:\sybase\OCS-15_0") so I suggest to try to find it there if it can't
be found in the file.
Please find the attached patch.

P.S.: For reference only: the 1.09 version of DBD::Sybase may be
installed to ActivePerl 5.8 under MS Windows by
ppm install http://jenda.krynicky.cz/perl/DBD-Sybase.ppd
