Making headway on the Sybase::TdsServer and Sybase::RepAgent perl modules
DBI, Databases, News, OS, Perl, PostgreSQL, RepAgents, Replication Server, Sybase, Windows, subversion Add commentsRemember my Sybase Replication Server: custom built RepAgents with Perl! post back last year? Well, not only am I the new maintainer, but I finally have it working in a test environment. It isn’t ready for a new release for Sybase::TdsServer and Sybase::RepAgent, yet, but expect one soon.
My main development environment for these two modules is:
- Windows XP SP2
- ActiveState Perl 5.8.8
- Sybase Workspace 1.7 (Eclipse based)
- EPIC Perl plugin
- Subclipse (subversion client)
I’m hoping to get out my first CPAN release to the perl testers within the next month or so. Why the delay? My wife and I are expecting family and friends to stay with us for the next few weeks. That’s a very good thing

Jason,
I’m very interested to see where you are with this, especially wrt a PostgreSQL RepAgent. Can you give me an update? When do you plan to upload a new version to CPAN?

I’m hoping to upload a new version to CPAN sometime in January. A lot of things have been put on hold as my wife is currently 9 months pregnant.
The original code was built around the perl 5.0005 version, the original author seems to have written it as you would a C program. That’s not a bad thing but is rather unusual to see in a perl module. Programming preferences
