Whatīs so complicated to customize sql?
Uh...because you basically have to RE-WRITE most of the MODs written for
Links 2.0 (flat file version).
The routines and processes are TOTALLY different. For instance, rather than OPENing, WRITing, MODIFYing, and DELETing data from a flat file, you have to access an actual database, typically MySQL, which means changing the syntax of the scripts to work with MySQL.
In addition, Links SQL operates under mod_perl and strict, meaning that the Perl codes in LINKS 2.0 would have to be re-written to work with Links SQL!
That is why it is not a piece of cake to upgrade as you have assumed.
Good luck!
