There was a time I tried to take advantage of Class::DBI but it appeared very hard to me to make complex SQL queries and I gave it up. I often have to make SQL queries that use up to six different tables. Is it so easy to do with Class::DBI as well? What about using sequences? Does Class:DBI support it? Can Class::DBI use Oracle engine? Is it possible to use Oracle hints in queries? I am very interested in your explanation whom I find to be experienced Class::DBI user.
