NAME

       Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Scalar - Scalar column metadata.

SYNOPSIS

         use Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Scalar;

         $col = Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Scalar->new(...);
         $col->make_methods(...);
         ...

DESCRIPTION

       Objects of this class store and manipulate metadata for scalar columns in a database.  Column metadata
       objects store information about columns (data type, size, etc.) and are responsible for creating object
       methods that manipulate column values.

       This class inherits from Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column. Inherited methods that are not overridden
       will not be documented a second time here.  See the Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column documentation for
       more information.

METHOD MAP

       "get_set"
           Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Generic, scalar, "interface => 'get_set', ..."

       "get"
           Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Generic, scalar, "interface => 'get', ..."

       "get_set"
           Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Generic, scalar, "interface => 'set', ..."

       See the Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column documentation for an explanation of this method map.

OBJECT METHODS

       check_in [ARRAYREF]
           Get or set a reference to an array of valid column values.

       default VALUE
           Get or set the default value for the column.

       init_method [NAME]
           Get  or  set  the  name  of the "init" method.  See the documentation for the "scalar" method type in
           Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Generic for more information.

       length [INT]
           Get or set the length of the column in characters.

       overflow [BEHAVIOR]
           Get or set the setting that determines the behavior when the column  value  is  greater  than  length
           characters.  Valid values for BEHAVIOR are:

           fatal
               Throw an exception.

           truncate
               Truncate the column value to the correct length.

           warn
               Print a warning message.

           The default value is "fatal".

       type
           Returns "scalar".

       with_init [BOOL]
           Get or set the flag that determines whether or not the method created by "make_method()" will include
           an   "init"   method   as   well.    See   the   documentation   for   the   scalar  method  type  in
           Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Generic for more information.
