NAME

       Alzabo::Debug - Creates constants used to turn on debugging

SYNOPSIS

         export ALZABO_DEBUG='SQL|TRACE'

         ... load and run code using Alzabo ...

         export ALZABO_DEBUG=METHODMAKER

         ... load and run code using Alzabo ...

DESCRIPTION

       This module creates constants used by other modules in order to determine what debugging output should be
       generated.

       The interface is currently experimental.

USAGE

       Currently, the only way to turn on debugging is by setting the "ALZABO_DEBUG" environment variable.  This
       variable can contain various flags, each separated by a pipe char (|).  Each flag turns on different
       types of debugging output.

       These flags must be set before Alzabo is loaded, as debugging is turned on or off through the use of
       constants.

       The current flags are:

       •   SQL

           Generated SQL and its associated bound variables.

       •   TRACE

           A stack trace will be generated any time SQL is generated.

       •   METHODMAKER

           The "Alzabo::MethodMaker" module will generate verbose output describing the methods it is creating.

       •   REVERSE_ENGINEER

           The modules involved in reverse-engineering will generate output describing what it finds during
           reverse-engineering.

       •   ALL

           Turn on all flags.

       For now, all debugging output is sent to "STDERR".
