I have been doing a little research into connection Pooling with OCI and
I was just wondering if the concept of a "Connection Pool" would fit
into the DBI spec someplace.
As we already have DBI::Apache and "connect_cache" would it just be
redundant to add this "connect_pool" as the present functionality can
be 'Bent' to that way?
Say something like this
$DBI->connect_pool($pool_name,$data_source,$username,
$password,$min_connections,$max_connections,\%attr);
The idea being one could create two separate pools at the Apache level
one for lets say "Read_only_Users" and one for "Read_Write_Users" and
use connections out of the pool.
Or am I just creating something that no-one else will use??
