NAME

DBIx::Class::SQLMaker - An SQL::Abstract-based SQL maker class

DESCRIPTION

This module is a subclass of SQL::Abstract and includes a number of DBIC-specific workarounds, not yet suitable for inclusion into the SQL::Abstract core. It also provides all (and more than) the functionality of SQL::Abstract::Limit, see DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::LimitDialects for more info.

Currently the enhancements to SQL::Abstract are:

• Support for JOIN statements (via extended table/from support)

• Support of functions in SELECT lists

• GROUP BY/HAVING support (via extensions to the order_by parameter)

• Support of ...FOR UPDATE type of select statement modifiers

• The -ident operator

• The -value operator
