data_sources

@ary = $dbh->data_sources();
@ary = $dbh->data_sources(\%attr);

Returns a list of data sources (databases) available via the $dbh driver's data_sources() method, plus any extra data sources that the driver can discover via the connected $dbh. Typically the extra data sources are other databases managed by the same server process that the $dbh is connected to.

Data sources are returned in a form suitable for passing to the "connect" method (that is, they will include the "dbi:$driver:" prefix).

The data_sources() method, for a $dbh, was added in DBI 1.38.
