Module
DBD::CSV - DBI driver for CSV files
Description
The DBD::CSV module is yet another driver for the DBI (Database
independent interface for Perl). This one is based on the SQL
"engine" SQL::Statement and the abstract DBI driver DBD::File
and implements access to so-called CSV files (Comma separated
values).
Warning
THIS IS ALPHA SOFTWARE. It is *only* 'Alpha' because the
interface (API) is not finalized. The Alpha status does not
reflect code quality or stability.
