Re: Why was it neccessary to pass a DBI handler by reference?

in reply to Why was it neccessary to pass a DBI handler by reference?

It almost feels as if the reference count got screwed up, and caused the handle not to get destroyed as it should (although I don't really see how that is possible). Did you try to run this with DBI->trace(3) to see what was going on?

I did, but the results weren't very useful to me because 1) I have never looked at the output much before and don't know how to read it; and 2) the code is part of a project, and so the tracelog that was generated was 690 lines long. When the deadline is less pressing I hope to have time to product a test case that demonstrates the problem, but I know I won't be given time for it now that I've come up with a solution (the project is quite urgent). I'm just curious now! As I stated, it's not a real problem anymore, but I would like to know why. `:)`	[reply]
