DBI->state()

Have the DBI->err(), DBI->errstr(), DBI->state() been
deprecated ? I see the err() and errstr() are still
in the DBI.pm code, but no trace of state() (as far
back as 1.38)

FYI: I'm trying to check state info on a connection
failure, so I don't have a "handle" to call state() on.

Or is the preferred solution to read the $DBI::state
variable directly ?

TIA,
