NAME

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::Generic - Automatic primary key class for Oracle

SYNOPSIS

# In your table classes
__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/PK::Auto Core/);
__PACKAGE__->add_columns({ id => { sequence => 'mysequence', auto_nextval => 1 } });
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('id');
__PACKAGE__->sequence('mysequence');

DESCRIPTION

This class implements autoincrements for Oracle.

METHODS

connected

Returns true if we have an open (and working) database connection, false if it is not (yet) open (or does not work). (Executes a simple SELECT to make sure it works.)

The reason this is needed is that DBD::Oracle's ping() does not do a real OCIPing but just gets the server version, which doesn't help if someone killed your session.

get_autoinc_seq

Returns the sequence name for an autoincrement column

columns_info_for

This wraps the superclass version of this method to force table names to uppercase

datetime_parser_type

This sets the proper DateTime::Format module for use with DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::DateTime.
