DBIx::Simple::Result::RowObject3pm

Overview

This class is the default for the "object" and "objects" result object methods. Mainly, it provides syntactic sugar at the expense of performance.

Instead of writing

    my $r = $db->query('SELECT foo, bar FROM baz')->hash;
    do_something_with $r->{foo}, $r->{bar};

you may write

    my $r = $db->query('SELECT foo, bar FROM baz')->object;
    do_something_with $r->foo, $r->bar;

This class is a subclass of Object::Accessor, which provides per-object (rather than per-class) accessors. Your records must not have columns names like these:

    * can
    * ls_accessors
    * ls_allow
    * mk_accessor
    * mk_clone
    * mk_flush
    * mk_verify
    * new
    * register_callback
    * ___autoload
    * ___callback
    * ___debug
    * ___error
    * ___get
    * ___set

And of course DESTROY and AUTOLOAD, and anything that new versions of Object::Accessor might add.

DBIx::Simple::OO

DBIx::Simple::OO is a third party module by Jos Boumans that provided "object" and "objects" to DBIx::Simple. Similar functionality is now built in, in part inspired by DBIx::Simple:OO.

Using DBIx::Simple 1.33 or newer together with DBIx::Simple::OO 0.01 will result in method name clash. DBIx::Simple::Result::RowObject was written to be compatible with DBIx::Simple::OO::Item, except for the name, so "isa" calls still need to be changed.

In practice, DBIx::Simple 1.33 makes DBIx::Simple::OO obsolete.
