Re: Re: DBIx::XML_RDB and Oracle?

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah, I've been trying to sort this whole oraperl thing out - the thing I'm confused about is:

If you're making the connection through DBIx::XML_RDB, then I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to be using oraperl. I mean - i've tried using "DBD::Oraperl" and "Oraperl" as the driver but no luck!

Sigh. mr.dunstan

Hi guys - thanks for the reply. Yes, I have read those 2 pages over and over again. Nothing even remotely shows me how to use oraperl with DBIx::XML_RDB. "There are only 35 chambers, there is no 36th." "I know, I want to create a new one... " - Shaolin Master Killer	[reply]

Well I opened up the XML_RDB.pm file and looked at the function that uses the driver and this is what it showed `$self->{dbh} = DBI->connect("dbi:$driver:". $self->{datasource}, $user +id, $password);` [download] Which leads me to believe if you put "Oracle" as your driver and have DBD::Oracle installed properly it should work. --BigJoe Learn patience, you must.
