RE: TEMP fields behaviour

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2005/01/17]

Couldn't you do something like this?

__PACKAGE__->columns(TEMP => (__PACKAGE__->columns("TEMP"), qw(foo bar)));

This would first get a list of the temp columns, add your columns to it, and
then set the temp columns to the old plus new columns.  I haven't tried it,
but I don't see why it or some variation on it wouldn't work and you
wouldn't be shot in the foot later if the method the underlying base class
used to store data changed at a later date and would not violate object
oriented principles.

Hi!

I looked into DBI.pm from Class::DBI to understand how the object values are
stored from the DBI hash.
After that I figured out that my additional 'temp' field 'since' is called
'datetime_from' in the sql view.
So I renamed my temp field from 'since' to 'datetime_from' and
out-of-the-box it gets filled with the right value ;-)

I'm still looking for an example how to subclass an Class::DBI class...

:) terminology is fun. No. I mean "is_a" in the class dbi  sense ie it uses
the
Class::DBI::Relationship::IsA to inherit from another class.

I'd also expect a class's TEMP columns or any other declarations to override
any that it inherits via @ISA.
