Subject: SQL_DRIVER_NAME overly long
DBD::Interbase 0.48 sets SQLGetInfo()'s SQL_DRIVER_NAME to the full filename of /my/path/to/perl/lib/DBD/Interbase.pm. While this is hardly a matter of rigorous standard, the following DBDs offer shorter examples, more useful IMHO to the human consumer of SQLGetInfo(): DBD-Oracle-1.23 => "DBD/Oracle.pm" DBD-mysql-4.013 => "libmyodbc3.so" DBD-Pg-2.16.0 => "DBD::Pg" The attached patch follows the DBD::Pg example. Note that I commend DBD::Interbase for supplying a value at all -- many common drivers leave this NULL (DBD-SQLite-1.29, DBD-CSV-0.26, DBD-DBM-0.03, etc.)
