NAME

MonetDB::CLI::MapiXS - MonetDB::CLI implementation, using libMapi

SYNOPSIS

use MonetDB::CLI::MapiXS;

my $cxn = MonetDB::CLI::MapiXS->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::MapiXS is an implementation of the MonetDB call level interface MonetDB::CLI.
It uses libMapi - the MonetDB Application Programming Interface. Normally, you don't use this module directly, but let MonetDB::CLI choose an implementation module.

PREREQUISITES

libMapi

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.
