Subject: RE: DBlib errhandler does funny things if undef returned
Date: Feb 26 2004 4:50PM
Reminds me of a trading system I used to work on. If you entered an
invalid date into the screen, it would pop up a box that said
"Segmentation Violation." Our quality control people thought that was
not an intuitive message, and suggested "Invalid date" instead.

Subject: DBlib errhandler does funny things if undef returned
If you set up an error handler with Sybase::DBlib::seterrhandle(),
and your error handler returns undef, then you get a strange message
'Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry'. It would be better
to print a more obvious warning about an undef return value from the
handler.
