NAME

       Class::DBI::Query - Deprecated SQL manager for Class::DBI

SYNOPSIS

               my $sth = Class::DBI::Query
                       ->new({
                               owner => $class,
                               sqlname => $type,
                               essential => \@columns,
                               where_columns => \@where_cols,
                       })
                       ->run($val);

DESCRIPTION

       This abstracts away many of the details of the Class::DBI underlying SQL mechanism. For
       the most part you probably don't want to be interfacing directly with this.

       The underlying mechanisms are not yet stable, and are subject to change at any time.

OPTIONS

       A Query can have many options set before executing. Most can either be passed as an option
       to new(), or set later if you are building the query up dynamically:

   owner
       The Class::DBI subclass that 'owns' this query. In the vast majority of cases a query will
       return objects - the owner is the class of which instances will be returned.

   sqlname
       This should be the name of a query set up using set_sql.

   where_clause
       This is the raw SQL that will substituted into the 'WHERE %s' in your query. If you have
       multiple %s's in your query then you should supply a listref of where_clauses. This SQL
       can include placeholders, which will be used when you call run().

   essential
       When retrieving rows from the database that match the WHERE clause of the query, these are
       the columns that we fetch back and pre-load the resulting objects with. By default this is
       the Essential column group of the owner class.

METHODS

   where()
               $query->where($match, @columns);

       This will extend your 'WHERE' clause by adding a 'AND $column = ?' (or whatever $match is,
       isntead of "=") for each column passed. If you have multiple WHERE clauses this will
       extend the last one.
