These patches were originally by Patrick Mulvany, and posted to mod_perl in 2003. I've made sure they apply to Apache-DBI-0.99, and are compatible with my re-scoping of $Idx.
The ping patch looks obviously correct to me. It makes sure that the
database is always pinged on connect() if PingTimeOut is set to 0.
Here's the original description of the "reset" patch:
patch from Patrick Mulvany July 21, 2003
- Fixed issues relating to changing handle state post
connection.
Handles now returned in same state as original and incomplete
transactions rolled back before re-issuing handle so
begin_work
should now be safe. "Patrick Mulvany" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
