Hi list,

I'm using set_sql to perform custom searches built up from
SQL::Abstract. To my knowledge, I cannot use Class::DBI::AbstractSearch
because I need to do a join.

In testing my code, I discovered that repetitively calling the set_sql
function using the same name causes the following warning message:

    search_purchases() already exists at /mymodule.pm line 165

I checked the source and this warning is generated at line 936 in
Class/DBI.pm. OK, I figured I'll just remove the search_ function;
however, I don't see a way to do that.

On further reflection of the problem, I'm not sure why this warning is
being sent. Is there a problem with redefining a subroutine? If so, then
shouldn't there be a way to remove the created subs?


Thanks,
William
