Perl support for MySQL is provided by means of the DBI
/DBD
client interface. The interface requires Perl Version 5.6.0 or later.
It will not work if you have an older version of Perl.
If you want to use transactions with Perl DBI, you need to have
DBD::mysql
version 1.2216 or newer. Version 2.9003 or newer
is recommended.
As of Version 3.22.8, Perl support is no longer included with
MySQL distributions. You can obtain the necessary modules from
http://search.cpan.org for Unix, or using the ActiveState ppm
program on Windows. The following sections describe how to do this.
Perl support for MySQL must be installed if you want to run the MySQL benchmark scripts. See section 7.1.4 The MySQL Benchmark Suite.
