sybperl includes four modules: Sybase::DBlib, Sybase::CTlib,
|
||
|
|
Sybase::BCP and Sybase::Sybperl. The first two implement a thin
|
||
|
|
wrapper around the Sybase DB-Library and Client Library APIs,
|
||
|
|
respectively. Sybase::BCP is a specialty module aimed at doing
|
||
|
|
Bulk-Copy operations, and Sybase::Sybperl is a compatibility module
|
||
|
|
with sybperl 1.xx (i.e. with the perl 4.x version).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The sybperl modules are thin wrappers around the Sybase APIs. This is
|
||
|
|
both good and bad. It's good because you have greater control, and
|
||
|
|
because the API is (obviously) close to the way the server and the
|
||
|
|
protocol work. It's bad in that it's a proprietary API, and that it is
|
||
|
|
somewhat verbose.
