Never mind re. PK::Auto. If you have the newest DBIx::Class, that
gets automatically loaded. However, you may still need to do
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key();

Hi Martin,
You might check to make sure that you are loading PK::Auto in
MyAppDB::MyTable:
# ...
use base 'DBIx::Class';
__PACKAGE__->load_components("PK::Auto", "Core");
__PACKAGE__->table("mytable");
# then make sure you declare the primary key later on...
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key("mytable_id");
All the best,
Paul

Sorrry, this is another newbie question.
I am using HTML::Widget and DBIx::Class to do simple CRUD on some
MySQL tables. I have defined an auto-increment primary key on one
of my tables, and I want to use an HTML form to populate and
create a new object. I then want to retrieve the newly-generated key.
Sup[pose the SQL has:
CREATE TABLE mytable (
mytable_id SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
title VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL,
date VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (mytable_id);
Having read the examples, I thought that all I had to do is:
my $obj = $c->model(q{MyAppDB::MyTable})->new({});
$obj->populate_from_widget($result);
my $newid = $obj->mytable_id;
but I am finding that the generated SQL is in fact setting the key
field to zero, and then the last line of the above code is getting
an undefined value back.
But then I have not actually told my DBIx::Class package for the
table that the column is autoincrement -- do I need to do this and
if so how?
