DBD::mysql does not support bind_param_inout as is documented in this 4 year old bug. I am trying to understand how hard it would be to implement (and I am not an XS Monk by any standard). Is it more difficult to implement for MySQL than e.g. DB2?
if( is_inout ) { phs->sv = value; /* Make a reference to the input variable */ SvREFCNT_inc( value ); /* Increment reference to variable */ if( SQL_PARAM_INPUT != phs->paramType ) imp_sth->bHasOutput = 1; if( SQL_PARAM_OUTPUT != phs->paramType ) imp_sth->bHasInput = 1; if( maxlen > 0 ) { maxlen++; /* Add one for potential null terminator */ /* Allocate new buffer only if current buffer isn't big enough */ if( maxlen > phs->bufferSize ) { if( 0 == phs->bufferSize ) /* new buffer */ Newc( 1, phs->buffer, maxlen, SQLCHAR, void* ); else Renewc( phs->buffer, maxlen, SQLCHAR, void* ); phs->bufferSize = maxlen; } } }
Update: I got feedback from Patrick saying he would look into the matter.

No matter how great and destructive your problems may seem now, remember, you've probably only seen the tip of them. [1]
