Hi!
I've done a lot of DBD::Oracle programming for over 10 years and never met a situation where I needed to do that. I can safely say that your program will be better off for using some sort of while ( ...->fetch ) loop.
I also use DBD::Oracle in one of my projects (ActivePerl 5.10). I get sporadical crashes, though. The program polls a spool table every 30 seconds or so. And sometimes perl just crashes, mostly after it ran for a few hours.
Got anything similar? Could this be an incompatible Oracle client installed? Or is some problem within DBD::Oracle/ActivePerl more likely?
