In the documentation for get_objects: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Rose-DB-Object/lib/Rose/DB/Object/Manager.pm#get _objects under the "query" parameter it says: "For the complete list of valid parameter names and values, see the documentation for the query parameter of the build_select function in the Rose::DB::Object::QueryBuilder module." Then, in the QueryBuilder docs: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Rose-DB-Object/lib/Rose/DB/Object/QueryBuilder.p m#build_select under where it says this: "Nested boolean logic is possible using the special keywords and and or" there's this example query: query => [ or => [ and => [ category => undef, type => 'aux' ], category => [ 'sports', 'science' ], ], type => 'news', title => { like => [ '%million%', '%resident%' ] }, ], Note that the arguments to "or => ..." and "and => ..." are a references to arrays of parameters in the same form that they would appear if they were arguments to the top-level query. For example: # WHERE foo = 'bar' AND bee = 123 query => [ foo => 'bar', bee => 123, ] Query conditions are "and"ed by default (this is controlled by the "logic" parameter). To "or" those two conditions, just wrap them in a prefix "or => ..." # WHERE foo = 'bar' OR bee = 123 query => [ or => [ foo => 'bar', bee => 123, ], ] (there are also nested boolean logic examples in the tutorial) -John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
