Alzabo::Driver::PostgreSQL(3)
PostgreSQL specific Alzabo driver subclass
SYNOPSIS
use Alzabo::Driver::PostgreSQL;
DESCRIPTION
This provides some PostgreSQL specific implementations for the virtual
methods in Alzabo::Driver.
METHODS
connect, create_database, drop_database
Besides the parameters listed in the Alzabo::Driver
docs, the following parameters
are accepted:
schemas
This method accepts the same parameters as the "connect()" method.
get_last_id
Returns the last id created for a sequenced column.
identifier_length
Returns the maximum identifier length allowed by the database. This
is really a guess based on the server version, since the actual value
is set when the server is compiled.
BUGS
In testing, I found that there were some problems using Postgres in a
situation where you start the app, connect to the database, get some
data, fork, reconnect, and and then get more data. I suspect that
this has more to do with the DBD::Pg driver and/or Postgres itself
than Alzabo. I don't believe this would be a problem with an app
which forks before ever connecting to the database (such as mod_perl).
