REQUIREMENTS:

  - Perl (version 5.8.1 or higher)

  - Perl DBI (1.41 or higher)

  - Firebird (2.5.1 or higher)

  - A C compiler

    * UN*X

      GCC 4.x (tested, older may or may not work) or other capable

      clang

    * Windows

      - Strawberry perl (http://strawberryperl.com/) comes with it's own compiler (mingw) 

      - Visual Studio C++ (http://visualstudio.com)

      - Cygwin

    * Freebsd 

      - Threaded perl is required (You have to re-install perl from ports and you have to select the config

      option that says 'build a perl with threads')

*BEFORE* BUILDING, TESTING AND INSTALLING this you will need to:

  - Build, test and install Perl 5 (at least 5.8.1).

  - Build, test and install the DBI module (at least DBI 1.41).

  

    On Debian/Ubuntu you can do a simple:

      sudo apt-get install firebird2.5-dev libdbi-perl

    On OpenSUSE:

      sudo zypper in firebird firebird-devel perl-DBI

    On Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS and derivates:

      sudo yum install firebird firebird-devel perl-DBI

  - Remember to *read* the DBI README file if you installed it from source

  - Make sure that Firebird server is running (for testing telnet localhost 3050)

      sudo service firebird start

BUILDING:

  Win32/Win64 with Strawberry 

    type 'dmake' from the console 

  Win32/Win64 with MS compiler:

    type 'nmake', not just 'make'

  To Configure and build the DBD:

    perl Makefile.PL

    make

TESTING

  To run tests module Test::Exception is required on Debian/Ubuntu systems:

     sudo apt-get install libtest-exception-perl

     

  Please, set at least DBI_PASS (or ISC_PASSWORD), before 'make test'.

  The default for DBI_USER is 'SYSDBA'.(masterkey password is given here as example only)

    ISC_PASSWORD=masterkey make test

INSTALLING:

    make install
