MsqlPerl is out of alpha! The new release comes with
a new interface
more intuitive, less to type, will most probably allow an emulation
of MsqlPerl with an underlying DBD::Msql (expect an announcement for
DBD::Msql by Alligator RSN). The main point of the interface is, that
it hides the object attributes behind methods.
a memory leak less
Thanks to Dan McGuirk <
[email protected]>!
full backwards compatibility
1.00 will most probably be the last version that supports the old-style
interface with direct access to the object attributes. Unless you speak
up, of course, I will change the underlying code and thusly the object
structure in future releases.
support for NULL fields
Thanks to Dirk.vanGulik <

Get it from

or

If you find old releases of MsqlPerl on any server, please let the
administrator and/or me know! There are too many a1 versions still
around, which are practically useless today.
