Hi Dan,

OK. If you get a chance to try output parameters of type string, int, and
float, I'd be very interested.

It looks from the dump like the reply from sp_prepare includes a
description of the parameters on the server. That was the part I was
missing, the secret sauce. Without that information, I don't believe it's
possible to implement placeholders in ct-lib.

But it's there, and it seems to be done. Looks like it's time to update
the FAQ.

Thanks for your work. Would you be interested in perfecting ct-lib vs.
DBD::Sybase, i.e. making all the unit tests pass? It'd be a nice, clean
description: "FreeTDS replaces Sybase's implementation as far as
DBD::Sybase can tell, passing all tests."

Regards,

--jkl
