POE::Component::LaDBI::Request - Class to encapsulate LaDBI requests to be executed by POE::Component::LaDBI::Engine.

SYNOPSIS

Excuse the vulgarities, I was tired and maybe even a little drunk ;).

  use POE::Component::LaDBI::Request;

  $dsn = 'dbi:Sybase:server=biteme;hostname=sybdb.biteme.com;database=biteme',
  $user = 'pimple';
  $passwd = 'oNMyaSS';

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd  => 'connect',
                                             Data => [$dsn, $user, $passwd]);

  $eng = POE::Component::LaDBI::Engine->new();

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

  die "connect failed" unless $resp->code eq 'OK';

  $dbh_id = $resp->handle_id;

  $sql = 'SELECT * FROM candidates WHERE jaws = ? AND willingness = ?'

  $req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new(Cmd      => 'prepare',
                                             HandleId => $dbh_id  ,
                                             Data     => [$sql]   );

  $resp = $eng->request( $req );

DESCRIPTION

"$req = POE::Component::LaDBI::Request->new()"

Upon instantiation a request id is allocated to represent this request. This cookie is available as "$req-"id>.

Args:

For the keys, capitalization does not matter. Internally the keys are lowercased.

"Cmd"

Required.

The command to execute. Only a subset of DBI basic commands implemented.

The value must be in all uppercase.

So far they are:

   CONNECT          ->   DBI->connect
   DISCONNECT       ->   $dbh->disconnect
   PREPARE          ->   $sth->prepare
   FINISH           ->   $sth->finish
   EXECUTE          ->   $sth->execute
   ROWS             ->   $sth->rows
   FETCHROW         ->   $sth->fetchrow
   FETCHROW_HASH    ->   $sth->fetchrow_hash
   FETCHALL         ->   $sth->fetchall
   FETCHALL_HASH    ->   $sth->fetchall_hash
   PING             ->   $dbh->ping
   DO               ->   $dbh->do
   BEGIN_WORK       ->   $dbh->begin_work
   COMMIT           ->   $dbh->commit
   ROLLBACK         ->   $dbh->rollback
   SELECTALL        ->   $dbh->selectall
   SELECTALL_HASH   ->   $dbh->selectall_hash
   SELECTCOL        ->   $dbh->selectcol
   SELECTROW        ->   $dbh->selectrow
   QUOTE            ->   $dbh->quote
