NAME
   DBD::Teradata - DBI driver for Teradata

SYNOPSIS
     use DBI;

     $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Teradata:hostname', 'user', 'password');

   See DBI for more information.

DESCRIPTION
   Refer to the included doc/index.html, or
   http://www.presicient.com/tdatdbd for detailed information.

   NOTE: This version of the driver has been deprecated in favor of the
   more complete and maintained GPL version available at
   http://www.presicient.com/tdatdbd

 PREREQUISITES
   Install Perl (minimum version 5.8).

   Build, test and install the DBI module (minimum version 1.36).

   Remember to *read* the DBI README, this README, and the included
   doc/index.html CAREFULLY!

   I had a lot of info to distill, and POD, though quaint and convenient
   for READMEs like this, just isn't as expressive as HTML...hence
   doc/index.html. Please refer to doc/index.html for detailed usage
   information.

 *** BUILDING:
  NOTE
   The provided test suite is not suitable for normal Perl "make test", as
   it requires a Teradata database and a username and password for an
   account with various privileges (e.g., CREATE PROCEDURE).

   After installing, you can verify the install by running

           perl t/test.pl <host> <user> <password>

   where <host> is the name of your Teradata server. NOTE that CLI does NOT
   support numeric IP addresses, nor addresses with the COPn suffix already
   applied, i.e.,

           perl t/test.pl 129.123.345.78 dbc dbc   # WRONG

           perl t/test.pl DBCCOP1 dbc dbc          # WRONG

           perl t/test.pl DBC dbc dbc              # RIGHT!

  Building For Microsoft Windows
   You'll need the nmake utility, available with the various Visual Studio
   tools. You'll also need to make sure your command prompt is configured
   to find nmake; see the Visual Studio documents for how to do that.

   To build:

       perl Makefile.pl    # use a perl that's in your PATH
       nmake
       nmake install

  Building For UNIX/Linux
       perl Makefile.pl    # use a perl that's in your PATH
       make
       make install

 IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS
   Please read the doc/index.html file which includes important
   information, including tips and workarounds for various
   platform-specific problems.
