Laziness

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2004/07/12]

This is about lazily populating fields from the database.

It appears from my DBI profiling and reading the docs that the default 
laziness setting is "lazy". So if I do:
__PACKAGE__->columns(All => ... );
all columns are lazy. Is this correct? (Do they end up in Others?)


I changed this to Primary + Essential:

__PACKAGE__->columns(Primary => qw{
         foo_session_id
         });
__PACKAGE__->columns(Essential => qw{
         start_time
         finish_time
         ... etc ...
         });

But I think I do something wrong because when running the tests I still see 
selects for individual columns as well as all the columns in the table. 
Should this be possible, or am I missing some other configuration?
