Remember 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)
    1. EPIC Perl plugin
    2. 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 :)

Assuming that OpenClient is installed:

Install ActiveState Perl from http://www.activestate.com  (free)

-----

1) Start -> ActiveState Perl -> Perl Package Manager  
    a) install DBI
    b) exit
2) download latest DBD-Sybase*.zip from http://www.peppler.org/downloads/ActiveState
    a) extract zip file to temporary directory (e.g. c:\test)
    b) Start -> Run -> cmd.exe
        I) cd \test
       II) ppm install DBD-Sybase.ppd
      III) exit

That's it :)
