1.24 2008-07-09
- Ripped out all 1.23 changes
- Re-releasing 1.22 with DBIx::Class as maintainer
1.23 ????-??-??
1) Large patch by Laurent Dami to add all of the
following functionality:
- support for nested subqueries (see the doc for explanations)
- +/- prefixes in C<@order> columns, meaning 'ASC' or 'DESC'
- documentation :
- added an explanation about flexibility of argument types
(passing scalars instead of hashrefs/arrayrefs)
- added an example of a boolean column (through ref to empty
string)
- mentioned that select() can take an arrayref of tables
- added explanation of +/- prefixes in C<@order>
- WHERE section structured into subsections
- new subsection for nested queries
- suppressed the NOTES section about Morgan laws, because
subqueries provide support for compound logic statements.
These changes enable additional functionality in DBIx::DataModel
as well.
2) Patch by Robbie Bow to enable "quote_char" to take
an array ref. This fixes an issue to MS SQL Server,
since it requires that columns and tables be quoted with
surrounding [square brackets]
3) Patch by Norbert BUCHMULLER to enable the use of
the old-school-SQL operator for not-equal ('<>')
could be used for the 'IS NOT NULL' expression:
foo => { '<>' => undef }
This now properly generates:
foo IS NOT NULL
1.22 changes unknown (1.22 changelog empty)
Description:
This module was inspired by the excellent the DBIx::Abstract manpage.
However, in using that module I found that what I really wanted to do
was generate SQL, but still retain complete control over my statement
handles and use the DBI interface. So, I set out to create an abstract
SQL generation module.
