BCP_SETL in DBD::Sybase

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

Is there any way to do BCP_SETL(TRUE) in DBD::Sybase. I am converting some perl code from Sybase::DBlib to DBD::Sybase because the former doesn't support kerberos access.

No, but see the 'Experimental Bulk-Load Functionality' section in the DBD::Sybase docs	[reply]

So, is it same as setting bulkLogin=1 in connect.	[reply]

I wouldn't know for sure. I've never used any BCP functionality in DBD::Sybase or Sybperl, I've only just started playing with bcp in DBD::Sybase, and I can't see any speed difference between it and raw inserts. When I need bcp, I just call the command line version via system or exec.	[reply]

Yes, it's the same thing. Michael	[reply]
