To simply GIVE UP and declare that all business, large or small, should cash in to aid the very few remaining mega-monopolies is simply un-American. I like small business and still believe in innovation. Simply said, Sun GAVE UP. They didn't even try to make it... they were tired and the high execs cashed in. Remember, NOBODY else at Sun actually benefits from this move... not the employees, not the customers... nobody.

So... what about Wall St.? Oddly enough, this benefits only a small percentage as well. Sun has lost over 75% of its valuation due to McNealy and Schwrtz... basically, the investors were apparently told a story... they bought that story... that story was not true, and now they simply want out with a little bit of their original investment... but it's likely that everyone is pretty upset. People are lazy, I believe it they were not lazy, they might not have rubber stamped the deal from Oracle.

Sun is dead... Sun technology is dead... and Larry now has my next vote for next CEO failure. We'll see, but I think this move might be the dumbest acquisition in history. Bye bye Larry.

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3)	User Contributed Perl Documentation	  DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3)

NAME

       DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins - Oracle joins in WHERE syntax support (instead of ANSI).

PURPOSE

       This module is used with Oracle < 9.0 due to lack of support for standard ANSI join syntax.

SYNOPSIS

       DBIx::Class should automagically detect Oracle and use this module with no work from you.

DESCRIPTION

       This class implements Oracle's WhereJoin support.  Instead of:

	   SELECT x FROM y JOIN z ON y.id = z.id

       It will write:

	   SELECT x FROM y, z WHERE y.id = z.id

       It should properly support left joins, and right joins.	Full outer joins are not possible due to the fact that Oracle requires the entire
       query be written to union the results of a left and right join, and by the time this module is called to create the where query and table
       definition part of the SQL query, it's already too late.

METHODS

       See DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::OracleJoins for implementation details.

BUGS

       Does not support full outer joins.  Probably lots more.
