The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: PGObject::Type::BigFloat
DSLIP: RdpOb
description: PGObject <-> Math::BigFloat Wrappers
userid: EINHVERFR (Chris Travers)
chapterid: 3 (Development_Support)
communities:
similar:
Math::BigFloat
rationale:
This subclasses Math::BigFloat and provides very basic integration
between that and the PGObject framework.
By default, this class will, when asked, register itself to handle
the following database types: float4, float8, and numeric. Once
registered any column using one of the registered types will be
converted into a PGObject::Type::BigFloat object on output. This
process is fully documented in the PGObject documentation which
provides the database-facing glue to make this work.
The module is intended to be subclassed by interactive applications
where the subclass handles user input and output, or used as is in
automated applications.
While the module itself is trivial, the interactions it introduces
between Math::BigFloat and PGObject::* classes are not. The module
thus provides a stable and tested interface to manage that
complexity.
