| Summary : Mysql Perl Interface
|
Description :
M(y)sql.pm and DBD::mSQL(mysql) implement two different approaches to
communicate with an mSQL or mysql server. DBD::mSQL(mysql) is built
upon the DBI, the generic Perl Database Interface. It brings you an
identical interface to a broad variety of databases and is in this
regard comparable to ODBC. The advantage of the DBI approach is
portability and interoperability. M(y)sql.pm are the elder species.
They were written before DBI was available but inspired by an early
draft of the DBI specification. As they have been circulating longer
they are more mature and pretty stable. They\'re also more complete
than DBD::mSQL and DBD::mysql.
As of Msql-Mysql-modules 1.1815, we consider DBD::mSQL and DBD::mysql
superior over MsqlPerl and MysqlPerl: They are sufficiently stable
(there�s only one known problem in DBI itself and it\'s announced to
be fixed in DBI 0.91) and definitely faster. Anyways, you have to decide
on your own about the trade-offs.
