in thread MariaDB : read credentials from file fails (via dsn option mariadb_read_default_file)

For some years now I have been consistently creating my databases with the utf8mb4 charset. As long as the Perl script outputs to the DB in utf8 and reads from it in utf8, there have been no issues. How is the MariaDB improved over this?

Blessings,

    You can use the testing script introduced in the issue #18 in DBD::ODBC. You need to comment out the drivers you don't have.

    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
