NAME MonetDB::CLI::MapiLib - MonetDB::CLI implementation, using MapiLib SYNOPSIS use MonetDB::CLI::MapiLib; my $cxn = MonetDB::CLI::MapiLib->connect( $host, $port, $user, $pass, $lang ); my $req = $cxn->query('select * from env'); while ( my $cnt = $req->fetch ) { print $req->field( $_ ) for 0 .. $cnt-1; } DESCRIPTION MonetDB::CLI::MapiLib is an implementation of the MonetDB call level interface MonetDB::CLI. It uses the SWIG generated MapiLib - a wrapper module for libMapi. Normally, you don't use this module directly, but let MonetDB::CLI choose an implementation module. PREREQUISITES MapiLib MonetDB (http://monetdb.cwi.nl) INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install You need to use the correct make command. That may be nmake or dmake, depending on which development environment you are using. TESTING The supplied tests will connect to the database using some environment variables, e.g.: set MONETDB_HOST=myhost set MONETDB_PORT=4711 Don't specify port and language (if possible). The server should listen on the default ports for sql and mapi. If the server doesn't accept the default username/password, then set the relevant environment variables, e.g.: set MONETDB_USER=test set MONETDB_PASS=secret Make sure libMapi is in your library search path.
