blackart has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi I am trying to make DBD::Sybase. I have installed DBI and freetds 0.82. When I do make of DBD::Sybase I get following error: -

# make

    I am not an expert on this, but my first-blush assumption would be that you need some kind of environment-variable setting, to tell the make process where these Sybase-specific libraries and header files can be found.

    A Google search for BLK_VERSION_150 (e.g...) also appears to produce a reasonable number of fairly fruitful-looking “hits...” I would expect that whatever solutions they describe will be directly applicable to your case, as well.

      sundialsvc4 you are the man.
      I added the folowing before syb_init() function in dbdimp.c file and everything is fine.

      #undef CS_VERSION_150
      #undef CS_VERSION_125
      #undef CS_VERSION_120
      #undef CS_DATE_TYPE
      #undef CS_BIGINT_TYPE

      I found it after googling the string you gave me BLK_VERSION_15 and got this hit http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/freetds/2006q3/020587.html
