Hello Monks.

I am creating some scripts to verify stored procedures. These stored procedures contain print statements meant to organize data for the user.

I have gotten past getting DBD::ODBC to recognize print statements and get them output to the console without throwing an error. Now, I want to now take those SQL PRINT statements and place them in data structures in the same order that they appear on the console. Say to create a file later.

I used this code as my sample to get the statements to the console:

#CREATE THE CUSTOM ERROR HANDLER AND
#DO CODE HERE THAT RETURNS PRINT STATEMENT HEADERS
#MINGLED WITH RETURNS OF ROWS, I.E.:
#Name
#JOHN SMITH
#Title
#MANAGER
#Department
#FOO BAR
#Data from Database
my @sp_return_data;
#Array to be populated like stored procedure output
my @final_output;

do { 
   my $line; 
   while (@sp_return_data = $sp_sth->fetchrow_array()) {
      $line = join (' | ', @sp_return_data) . ".\n";
      push @final_output, $line;
      }
} while ($sp_sth->{odbc_more_results});

I don't really understand how to grab the PRINT statements being handled by my custom error handler. My question is:

How do you modify that code snippet to put all of the PRINT statements into the array along with the rows (In order of appearance).

Thank you Monks!
