Hi,

I know that Jeff Zucker often appears on these forums, so I'm hoping he'll see this but any thoughts would be appreciated. I have some code which uses DBD::AnyData and it has suddenly (ie in the past couple of months) stopped working. It appears that DBD::AnyData does not work at all any more, due to upgrades on Debian.

I made the following test: 

#!/usr/bin/perl
#/home/tbooth/perl/testanydata.perl - created Mon Jun 27 13:57:06 2005

use warnings;

use DBI;

my $addbh = DBI->connect('dbi:AnyData(RaiseError=>1):');
$addbh->func('import', 'CSV', [<DATA>], 'ad_import');


__DATA__
foo,bar,baz
1,2,3
4,5,6

[download]

Result is: 
Can't call method "fetchrow_array" on unblessed reference at /usr/shar
+e/perl5/SQL/Statement/Functions.pm line 560, <DATA> line 3.

Surely that should work? If I use 'ad_catalog' instead of 'ad_import' it throws the same error on the first attempt to select.

Current module versions are: 
libxml-twig-perl 3.17-1
libanydata-perl 0.10-4
libtext-csv-perl 0.23-5
libdbd-csv-perl 0.2100-2
libdbd-anydata-perl 0.08-2
libsql-statement-perl 1.14-1

I really don't want to have to re-write all my code to use another module. I'm prepared to downgrade something to make this work, but with so many dependencies I don't know where to start. Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks - TIM
