Re: Strawberry Perl 64bit on Win7 crashes on DBI-function

I run Strawberry Perl on Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit (perl 5, version 16, subversion 3 (v5.16.3) built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread), DBI 1.631, DBD::ODBC 1.48 and I tried the following:

use Modern::Perl;
use DBI;

my @dataSources  =  DBI->data_sources('ODBC');
say "@dataSources";
[download]

and got the following result:

dbi:ODBC:bbdb dbi:ODBC:dBASE Files dbi:ODBC:Excel Files dbi:ODBC:MS Access Database dbi:ODBC:Visual FoxPro Database dbi:ODBC:Visual FoxPro Tables dbi:ODBC:SQLite3 Datasource

Does this small script fail in 5.18.1 as well? If yes, this would seem to be a problem with the later build. If no, perhaps you can comment out most of the script and uncomment them to find the offending/conflicting line.	[reply]

So i tried your little script, which is exactly what i'm doing, and it crashes also. No error message from perl itself, no warnings, windows just stops the perl process... strange. any further ideas appreciated.	[reply]

This is very interesting, thank you. Apart from the perl version you seem to have a very similar set-up.	[reply]

Yes, but I am not sure I have a Strawberry Perl 64bit version, it may be the 32bit version and I have no idea how to check that.
