NAME

       Alzabo::Driver::PostgreSQL - 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:

       •   options

       •   tty

   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).
