It doesn't look like there is a method on Template::Plugin::DBI for doing
this, but I think it would be fairly simple to put one in there. I actually
added a couple of lines to the _connect method of Template::Plugin::DBI just
after the DBI->connect()
$self->{ _DBH }->{ LongReadLen } = 512 * 1024;
$self->{ _DBH }->{ LongTruncOk } = 1;
(I set LongTruncOk as well so the query does not stop in the middle of
returning rows if a field is bigger than the specified length).
Of course, this is meddling with the inner workings of Template::Plugin::DBI
but it works as a quick fix!

Subject: [Templates] Using Memo fields with Plugin::DBI
Is there a way to return large text fields using Plugin::DBI?
Normally I would set the LongReadLen property in DBI but I can't see how to
do this using the Plugin.
thanks,
Tim..
