DBIx::SearchBuilder::Handle - Perl extension which is a generic DBI handle use DBIx::SearchBuilder::Handle; my $Handle = DBIx::SearchBuilder::Handle->new(); $Handle->Connect( Driver => 'mysql', Database => 'dbname', Host => 'hostname', User => 'dbuser', Password => 'dbpassword'); Jesse's a slacker. Blah blah blah. Jesse Vincent, jesse@fsck.com

dbh [HANDLE]
Return the current DBI handle. If we're handed a parameter, make the database handle that.

UpdateRecordValue
Takes a hash with fields: Table, Column, Value PrimaryKeys, and IsSqlFunction. Table, and Column should be obvious, Value is where you set the new value you want the column to have. The primary_keys field should be the lvalue of DBIx::SearchBuilder::Record::PrimaryKeys(). Finally sql_function_p is set when the Value is a SQL function. For example, you might have ('Value'=>'PASSWORD(string)'), by setting sql_function_p that string will be inserted into the query directly rather then as a binding.

UpdateTableValue TABLE COLUMN NEW_VALUE RECORD_ID IS_SQL
Update column COLUMN of table TABLE where the record id = RECORD_ID. if IS_SQL is set, don\'t quote the NEW_VALUE

SimpleQuery QUERY_STRING, [ BIND_VALUE, ... ]
Execute the SQL string specified in QUERY_STRING

FetchResult QUERY, [ BIND_VALUE, ... ]
Takes a SELECT query as a string, along with an array of BIND_VALUEs Returns the first row as an array

BinarySafeBLOBs
Returns 1 if the current database supports BLOBs with embedded nulls. Returns undef if the current database doesn't support BLOBs with embedded nulls

CaseSensitive
Returns 1 if the current database's searches are case sensitive by default Returns undef otherwise perl(1), the DBIx::SearchBuilder manpage
