I'm getting confused between the methods of connectivity with PERL. Right now I'm accessing several MySQL tables using DBI/DBD. However, I'd like to convert these programs into PostgreSQL apps. So, I'm assuming that since I used DBI (a common database connection format) that I'd only have to change the connect string to point to the PostgreSQL source rather than MySQL and all should be good. So, what is Pg.pm? and how is that connected (if at all) to DBI? I'm running 6.3 on Redhat 5, and psql seems to work Ok. I look in the src/interfaces/perl5/ and All I see are files for Pg...and nothing mentions DBI. Then, I search Altavista and come up with this in the latest from CPAN under DBI: http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/modules/by-category/07_Database_Interfaces/DB D/DBD-Pg-0.68.readme Ok, so the source for PG.pm is version 1.7.0 or so, and the version of this DBD-Pg is 0.68. Do these numbers have ANYTHING to do with each other, or are they two separate products? Which one do I need, and if I need the DBD from CPAN (as I suspect), will it work with 6.3?
