Changes for version 0.07999_02 - 2007-01-25

  • add support for binding BYTEA and similar parameters (w/Pg impl)
  • add support to Ordered for multiple ordering columns
  • mark DB.pm and compose_connection as deprecated
  • switch tests to compose_namespace
  • ResltClass::HashRefInflator added
  • Changed row and rs objects to not have direct handle to a source, instead a (schema,source_name) tuple of type ResultSourceHandle

Changes for version 0.07999_01 - 2006-10-05

  • add connect_info option "disable_statement_caching"
  • create insert_bulk using execute_array, populate uses it
  • added DBIx::Class::Schema::load_namespaces, alternative to load_classes
  • added source_info method for source-level metadata (kinda like column_info)
  • Some of ::Storage::DBI's code/docs moved to ::Storage
  • DBIx::Class::Schema::txn_do code moved to ::Storage
  • Storage::DBI now uses exceptions instead of ->ping/->{Active} checks
  • Storage exceptions are thrown via the schema class's throw_exception
  • DBIx::Class::Schema::throw_exception's behavior can be modified via ->exception_action
  • columns_info_for is deprecated, and no longer runs automatically. You can make it work like before via __PACKAGE__->column_info_from_storage(1) for now
  • Replaced DBIx::Class::AccessorGroup and Class::Data::Accessor with Class::Accessor::Grouped. Only user noticible change is to table_class on ResultSourceProxy::Table (i.e. table objects in schemas) and, resultset_class and result_class in ResultSource. These accessors no longer automatically require the classes when set.
