DBIx::ProcedureCall version 0.07 ============================= NOTE: While the interface provided by DBIx::ProcedureCall is database-independent, only Oracle is currently implemented. When developing applications for an Oracle database, it is a good idea to put all your database access code into stored procedures. This module provides a convenient way to call these stored procedures from Perl by creating wrapper subroutines that produce the necessary SQL statements, bind parameters and run the query. use DBIx::ProcedureCall qw(sysdate); my $conn = DBI->connect(.....); print sysdate($conn); INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make # if you want to run Oracle tests export ORACLE_USERID = 'username/passwd@dbname' # if you want to run PostgreSQL tests export PGUSER = 'username' make test make install The ORACLE_USERID and PGUSER environment variables are only needed to connect to the database during "make test" and will not be stored anywhere. The tests use the database read-only.
