ANNOUNCE: Teradata::SQL v0.01

Teradata::SQL is a Perl interface to Teradata SQL. It does not attempt to be
a complete interface to Teradata -- for instance, it does not allow
asynchronous requests or PM/API sessions -- but it should be sufficient for
many applications. The syntax is similar to that of DBI, but this is not a
DBI module. Both BTET and ANSI sessions are supported.

A SIMPLE EXAMPLE

$dbh = Teradata::SQL::connect("dbc/bogart,bacall");
$sth = $dbh->open("select * from edw.sales");
while ( @row = $sth->fetchrow_list ) {
... process the row ...
}
$sth->close;
$dbh->disconnect;

PREREQUISITES

This module requires:

Perl version 5.6.0 or later
a C compiler
CLIv2 (Note: no preprocessor is required)

At present, the module has been tested only on Solaris and MP-RAS. Those who
are able to test it on earlier versions of Perl or other platforms are
invited to collaborate.

I shall probably withdraw Teradata::BTET eventually.
