Upstream changes:
0.40 2010-09-17T18:44:01
- The code refs passed to `run()`, `txn()`, and `svp()` now know their
contexts, so that `wantarray` can be used to decide what to return.
Patch from Yaroslav Korshak.
- Set `AutoInactiveDestroy` on connect with DBI 1.614 and higher, unless
it is explicitly set in the attributes. This makes things even safer
in a forking environment, preventing a parent process from getting
disconnected when a child exits without using the connection. The
reports from Peter Rabbitson and Aran Deltac and subsequent discussion
with Tim Bunce led to the addition of this attribute in DBI 1.614,
which is now the recommended version of DBI.
- `DESTROY()` no longer pings the database or rolls back transactions.
It now simply calls `disconnect`. This avoids warnings during global
destruction, and doesn't seem necessary anyway, as the DBI does these
things during global destruction (and always has). Thanks to Matt
Trout for the heads-up.
- `DESTROY()` now clears `CachedKids`, following the precedent of
DBIx::Class. May not be needed for recent-ish drivers, but seems
harmless and it's nice to avoid warnings were possible. Reported by
Matt Trout.
- The `connected()` method no longer `local`ly sets `RaiseError`. It
instead leaves that to the drivers (currenly only Driver::Oracle).
- The exception classes `DBIx::Connector::TxnRollbackError` and
`DBIx::Connector::SvpRollbackError` now use `our @ISA =` instead of
`use base` to inherit from `DBIx::Connector::RollbackError. This is to
avoid failures from mod_perl restarts. Suggested by Matt Trout.
- Require Test::Pod 1.41 for POD tests so that `L<text|url>` is
considered valid.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!
DBIx::Connector provides a simple interface for fast and safe DBI connection
and transaction management. Connecting to a database can be expensive; you
don't want your application to re-connect every time you need to run a query.
The efficient thing to do is to hang on to a database handle to maintain a
connection to the database in order to minimize that overhead.
DBIx::Connector lets you do that without having to worry about dropped or
corrupted connections.
