Kind of an exaggeration. Apache::DBI is a useful module for porting existing CGI scripts to mod_perl. If you aren't porting CGI scripts to mod_perl, you can use other tools like DBI->connect_cached instead. The main differences are that Apache::DBI disables disconnect(), to allow for porting CGI code that disconnects after every request, and Apache::DBI does a rollback at the end of every request to avoid accidental commits of bad data when code dies during a request. - Perrin _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
