Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm)

NAME

	 Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle - An oracle specific Handle object

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle that compensates for some of the idiosyncrasies of Oracle.

METHODS

   connect PARAMHASH: Driver, Database, Host, User, Password
       Takes a paramhash and connects to your DBI datasource.

   database_version
       Returns value of ORA_OCI constant, see "Constants" in DBD::Oracle.

   insert
       Takes a table name as the first argument and assumes that the rest of the arguments are an array of key-value pairs to be inserted.

   build_dsn PARAMHASH
       Takes a bunch of parameters:

       Required: Driver, Database or Host/SID, Optional: Port and RequireSSL

       Builds a dsn suitable for an Oracle DBI connection

   blob_params column_NAME column_type
       Returns a hash ref for the bind_param call to identify BLOB types used by the current database for a particular column type.  The current
       Oracle implementation only supports ORA_CLOB types(112).

   apply_limits STATEMENTREF ROWS_PER_PAGE FIRST_ROW
       takes an SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return ROWS_PER_PAGE starting with FIRST_ROW;

   distinct_query STATEMENTREF
       takes an incomplete SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return a DISTINCT result set.
