*BEFORE* BUILDING, TESTING AND INSTALLING this you will need to:

   Build, test and install Perl 5 (at least 5.6.0 is recommended).
   It is very important to test it and install it!

   Build, test and install the DBI module (at least DBI 1.51 is
   required) if it is not already included in your perl distribution.

   No SQL Anywhere software needs to be installed to build this
   module; however, a SQL Anywhere client installation is required in
   order to use the module.

   A full SQLAnywhere client+server installation is recommended for
   testing this module otherwise the tests will be skipped.

Building:
   On UNIX:
       [ Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, etc. ]

       source sa_config.sh (or sa_config.csh) from the SQL Anywhere
       installation

       perl Makefile.PL
       make
       copy demo.db from the SQL Anywhere installation directory
           to the current directory
       make test
       make install

   On Win32:
       [ requires Microsoft C and ActiveState's ActivePerl
         (www.activestate.com) ]

       NOTE: ActivePerl 5.6.0 build 616 or later is required.

       perl Makefile.PL
       nmake
       copy demo.db from the SQL Anywhere installation directory
           to the current directory
       nmake test
       nmake install

   Do not hand-edit the generated Makefile as those changes will be
   lost the next time 'perl Makefile.PL' is invoked. Always try to
   make changes via the Makefile.PL command line and/or editing
   Makefile.PL.

For information on how to use DBD::SQLAnywhere, please invoke the
following after DBD::SQLAnywhere has been installed:

Prior to installation, you may instead run the following when
SQLAnywhere.pm is in your current directory:

   perldoc SQLAnywhere.pm

Examples can be found in the 'eg' directory:
   connect.pl  -> Demonstrates a simple connect.
   retrieve.pl -> Demonstrates retrieving data from a table and displaying the result set.
   blobs.pl    -> Demonstrates the use of blobs

For further examples, consult the test scripts located in the 't'
