DBD-Ingres (0.50) *****

An outstanding module. Of course, I'm biased too because I implemented the long/binary data type support for 0.50 (and fixed some memory leaks).

DBD-Ingres (0.39) **

I use this module a lot :) Building the module is nasty on HPUX
during the make I would receive this error.
"dbdimp.c", line 1: error 4036: Can't open include file '/cyp/gtac01/unixtacapps/ingres/files/eqdef.h'.
I had to edit the dbdimp.c file and change the include file
from eqdef.h to eqdefc.h and the module will compile.

The module is missing cached statements so it will not work
with Apache::DBI :(

This module needs much work.

If you use the Ingres RDBMs and Perl, then this is a *MUST*.

The docs are not too good, and could do with some work. It leaks memory like a sieve, but it does work.

The maintainer is nice, but awfully slow to implement patches sent to him, but he *does try* at least.

DBD::Ingres / DBD-Ingres (0.39) *****

Just one of the best modules! But of course I am biased - I wrote it ;-)
