DBD::mysql 4.018 released

Dear Perl and MySQL developers, admins and enthusiasts,

I’m please to announce the release of DBD::mysql 4.018! This release includes some code cleanups, added documentation as well as new features (database handle attributes) that allow you to be able to ascertain the server and client versions (Thank you to Robert M. Jansen). An example below, from the test for this new feature, shows you how you can use these new handle attributes:

print "$dbh->{mysql_clientinfo}n";

5.2.0-MariaDB

print "$dbh->{mysql_clientversion}n";

50200

print "$dbh->{mysql_serverversion}n";

50200

You can obtain the latest DBD::mysql release source from Github:

git clone git://github.com/CaptTofu/DBD-mysql.git

Or CPAN:

http://search.cpan.org/~capttofu/DBD-mysql-4.018/lib/DBD/mysql.pm

The file:

file: $CPAN/authors/id/C/CA/CAPTTOFU/DBD-mysql-4.018.tar.gz
size: 133427 bytes
md5: d1d4ee2f20910d6491d1b6216471b2f1

Again, thank you for using DBD::mysql, MySQL and of course Perl! Happy hacking! Lastly, always feel free to ask the maintainer questions. He can often be found on Freenode in #mysql as CaptTofu.
