NAME

POE::Component::LaDBI::Request - Class to encapsulate LaDBI requests to be executed by POE::Component::LaDBI::Engine.

SYNOPSIS

Excuse the vulgarities, I was tired and maybe even a little drunk ;).

  use POE::Component::LaDBI::Request;

  $dsn = 'dbi:Sybase:server=biteme;hostname=sybdb.biteme.com;database=biteme',
  $user = 'pimple';
  $passwd = 'oNMyaSS';

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd  => 'connect',
					     Data => [$dsn, $user, $passwd]);

  $eng = POE::Component::LaDBI::Engine->new();

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

  die "connect failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

  $dbh_id = $resp->handle_id;

  $sql = 'SELECT * FROM candidates WHERE jaws = ? AND willingness = ?'

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd      => 'prepare',
					     HandleId => $dbh_id  ,
					     Data     => [$sql]   );

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

  die "prepare failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

  $sth_id = $resp->handle_id;

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd      => 'execute',
					     HandleId => $sth_id  ,
					     Data     => ['WEAK','HIGH']);

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

  die "execute failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd      => 'rows',
					     HandleId => $sth_id);

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

  die "rows failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

  $nr_rows = $resp->data();

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd      => 'fetchrow',
					     HandleId => $sth_id);

  for ($i=0; $i < $nr_rows; $i++) {

     $resp = $eng->request( $resp );

     die "fetchrow failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

     $row = $resp->data();

     print "row[$i]: ", join("\t", @$row), "\n";

  }
