DBD::mysql 4.0.23 and MySQLBind released

For the sake of getting things done and not having projects succumb to bit-rot (in the case of MySQLBind), today I have released DBD::mysql 4.0.23 and MySQLBind with prepared-statement support.

DBD::mysql

DBD::mysql is the Perl driver for MySQL. I have been maintaining this project now for almost 10 years. I work on a lot of different projects and various languages, but Perl is very dear to me and so many things taken for granted that we use in the technical world use it and it Just Works (TM). MySQL is of course dear to me as well, and Perl talking to MySQL is of utmost importance, hence why I love maintaining this driver. I know the code in my sleep as well! This version includes various changes from contributors in the Open Source community who I am very grateful to. Please see the change log for details!

Also-- this is very important -- I want to thank Sveta Smirnova (Спасибо Света!) as …

DBD::drizzle 0.100 released!

I'm incredibly elated to announce the release of DBD::drizzle 0.100. What is different about this release? It uses Eric Day's new client library, libdrizzle! This means we could eventually package the client with DBD::drizzle, eliminating the issues I have with DBD::mysql where code doesn't compile because of trying to compile DBD::drizzle against a MySQL client binary produced on a different machine with a different compiler and compile flags.

I want to thank Clint Byrum - immense thanks- for his work, which the majority of, made this possible. He and I spent the last several days together at the users conference going over the code, getting it to work. We achieved together more in hours time what would have taken days or even weeks. I'm also glad to have gotten to know Clint-- it's great to make new friends!

The next step is that we'll probably write this from scratch at some point. Right now, this is a retro-fit of …

DBD::mysql and Memcahed UDF news

Good news!

DBD::mysql

I have a new co-maintainer who is going to help out with DBD::mysql, particularly with Windows build issues with Strawberry Perl. His name is Matthew Wilson. He "works part-time for a hedge fund maintaining predictive market models. " and I'm looking forward to working with him to improve DBD::mysql.

Things on the agenda for DBD::mysql :

* Build issues, particularly with Windows
* Any bugs that need fixing
* Change to a new SVN server, as well as get moved to Launchpad

Memcached Functions for MySQL

New release this week, 0.8. Numerous fixes, particularly to behaviors functions. They will work now!

Thats all for now. I'm in the middle of writting a book, so must get back to work!

Fifty Percent

I just uploaded one of my chapters in my book "Developing Web Applications using Perl, Memcached, MySQL and Apache" (Wiley). This was the 50% point. Man, this is a ton of work. Writing a book really takes up every second of your life, which is really hard when there are other projects you maintain - namely DBD::mysql, Memcached UDFs, FederatedX and my interest in helping with Drizzle. I've tried as much as possible to use my projects as material for the book making it possible to do two things at once, as well as make it interesting to write.

It's harder to write on reference material and explaining basic concepts than it is to write about code examples. The code examples I really enjoy because they are first interesting, and secondly there are some tricks and code functionality (particularly with Perl, DBI, stored procedures, etc) that I have never tried out before despite having been writing code for many years, that this book has …
