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.
Note that if you are using MySQL 4.1 client library, you must use
DBD::mysql 2.9003 or newer.
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 by 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 The MySQL Benchmark Suite.
