NAME

DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::ClassicExtensions - Class containing generic enhancements to SQL::Abstract::Classic

DESCRIPTION

This module is not intended to be used standalone. Instead it represents a quasi-role, that one would "mix in" via classic @ISA inheritance into a DBIx::Class::SQLMaker-like provider. See "connect_call_rebase_sqlmaker" in DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI for more info.

Currently the enhancements over SQL::Abstract::Classic are:

  • Support for JOIN statements (via extended table/from support)

  • Support of functions in SELECT lists

  • GROUP BY/HAVING support (via extensions to the order_by parameter)

  • A rudimentary multicolumn IN operator

  • Support of ...FOR UPDATE type of select statement modifiers
