13commands (using DBI). Despite being easy to use, they are also quite 29commands (using DBI). Despite being easy to use, they are also quite
14efficient and allow you to write faster programs in less lines of code. 30efficient and allow you to write faster programs in less lines of code. It
31should work with anything from perl-5.004_01 onwards, but I only support
325.005+. UTF8 handling (the C<sql_u*> family of functions) will only be
33effective with perl version 5.006 and beyond.
15 34
16=over 4 35If the descriptions here seem terse or if you always wanted to know
36what PApp is then have a look at the PApp module which uses this module
37extensively but also provides you with a lot more gimmicks to play around
38with to help you create cool applications ;)

70
71=item $sql_exec
72
73Since the C<sql_exec> family of functions return a statement handle there
74must be another way to test the return value of the C<execute> call. This
75global variable contains the result of the most recent call to C<execute>
76done by this module.
77
78=item $PApp::SQL::DBH
79
80The default database handle used by this module if no C<$DBH> was
81specified as argument. See C<sql_exec> for a discussion.
82
83=item $PApp::SQL::Database
84
85The current default C<PApp::SQL::Database>-object. Future versions might
86automatically fall back on this database and create database handles from
87it if neccessary. At the moment this is not used by this module but might
88be nice as a placeholder for the database object that corresponds to
89$PApp::SQL::DBH.

111
112The reason C<$id> is necessary is that you might specify special connect
113arguments or special flags, or you might want to configure your $DBH
114differently than maybe other applications requesting the same database
115connection. If none of this is necessary for your application you can
116leave C<$id> empty (i.e. "").

320(they were just re-written in C).
321
322sql_exists could be faster (it is written very ugly to not change the
