−NAME
+
−
+
−  MonetDB::CLI - MonetDB Call Level Interface
+
−
+
−SYNOPSIS
+
−
+
−  use MonetDB::CLI();
+
−
+
−  my $cxn = MonetDB::CLI->connect( $host, $port, $user, $pass, $lang );
+
−
+
−  my $req = $cxn->query('select * from env() env');
+
−  while ( my $cnt = $req->fetch ) {
+
−    print $req->field( $_ ) for 0 .. $cnt-1;
+
−  }
+
−
+
−DESCRIPTION
+
−
+
−  MonetDB::CLI is a call level interface for MonetDB, somewhat similar
+
−  to SQL/CLI, ODBC, JDBC or DBI.
+
−
+
−  Note: In its current incarnation, this interface resembles the MonetDB
+
−  Application Programming Interface.
+
−  In the future, MAPI will be replaced by the MonetDB/Five Communication Layer
+
−  (MCL).
+
−  It is not guaranteed that this call level interface stays the same!
+
−
+
−PREREQUISITES
+
−
+
−  MonetDB::CLI::* (implementation modules)
+
−
+
−  MonetDB (http://www.monetdb.org/)
+
−
+
−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 (depending on the
+
−  MonetDB::CLI implementations in use).
