Pg also has a great user defined type system, support for arrays (and the newest version can do arrays with nulls and composite arrays). Also the latest DBD supports asynchronous queries. The changes between versions are a little difficult, for example the problem with inserting bytea types doesn't seem to exist in the latest version, which means I guess I need to cut a couple of virtual machines with Pg versions to test against, but I need som time for that. Maybe I can get back to it when Chinese New Years is over. I'm not sure what the demand for some of the more unique features of Pg would be. I tried mapping out a way to support arrays, but wondered if I was the only one who'd use it :) I'll join the list, there are a couple of things with the various timedate types I'd like to clear up. I could probably handle that. --john > > _______________________________________________ > List: > http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbix-class > IRC: irc.perl.org#dbix-class > SVN: > http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/DBIx-Class/ > Searchable Archive: > http://www.grokbase.com/group/[EMAIL PROTECTED] > ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
