Currently i'm trying to create a connection from my windows machine to read from a remote DB2 database and i have to use perl scripting. I'm completely new to perl scripting but it does not seem difficult at all, what i need is some pointers or examples if anyone has of how to do this. Any help will be appreciated, thank you!

The basis of all Perl database communication is DBI. In this case, you will also want DBD::DB2.

  • I read about that i'm just absolutely new to perl therefore not entirely sure how i can use it haven't found many good sources. – Dre4821 May 01 '15 at 19:12
  • The DBI documentation that I linked to is really good. And if you have problems understanding, it contains details of many places to get help with DBI. I suggest you start by setting aside an hour or so to read through that document carefully. If you still have questions after then feel free to ask them here. – Dave Cross May 01 '15 at 20:34
