DBIx::Introspector is a module factored out of the DBIx::Class
|
||
|
|
database detection code. Most code that needs to detect which
|
||
|
|
database it is connected to assumes that there is a one-to-one
|
||
|
|
mapping from database drivers to database engines. Unfortunately
|
||
|
|
reality is rarely that simple. For instance, DBD::ODBC is typically
|
||
|
|
used to connect to SQL Server, but ODBC can be used to connect
|
||
|
|
to PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Oracle. Additionally, while ODBC is the
|
||
|
|
most common way to connect to SQL Server, it is not the only option,
|
||
|
|
as DBD::ADO can also be used.
