NAME

DBD::File - Base class for writing DBI drivers
 

SYNOPSIS

 This module is a base class for writing other DBDs.
 It is not intended to function as a DBD itself.
 If you want to access flatfiles, use DBD::AnyData, or DBD::CSV,
 (both of which are subclasses of DBD::File).

DESCRIPTION

See DBI for details on DBI, SQL::Statement for details on SQL::Statement and DBD::CSV or DBD::IniFile for example drivers.  

Metadata

    Active
    ActiveKids
    CachedKids
    CompatMode             (Not used)
    InactiveDestroy
    Kids
    PrintError
    RaiseError
    Warn                   (Not used)

The following DBI attributes are handled by DBD::File:

AutoCommit

Always on

ChopBlanks

Works

NUM_OF_FIELDS

Valid after "$sth-"execute>

NUM_OF_PARAMS

Valid after "$sth-"prepare>

NAME

Valid after "$sth-"execute>; undef for Non-Select statements.

NULLABLE

Not really working, always returns an array ref of one's, as DBD::CSV doesn't verify input data. Valid after "$sth-"execute>; undef for Non-Select statements.

These attributes and methods are not supported:

    bind_param_inout
    CursorName
    LongReadLen
    LongTruncOk

Additional to the DBI attributes, you can use the following dbh attribute:

f_dir

This attribute is used for setting the directory where CSV files are opened. Usually you set it in the dbh, it defaults to the current directory (``.''). However, it is overwritable in the statement handles.

Driver private methods

data_sources

The "data_sources" method returns a list of subdirectories of the current directory in the form ``DBI:CSV:f_dir=$dirname''.

If you want to read the subdirectories of another directory, use

    my($drh) = DBI->install_driver("CSV");
    my(@list) = $drh->data_sources('f_dir' => '/usr/local/csv_data' );

list_tables

This method returns a list of file names inside $dbh->{'f_dir'}. Example:

    my($dbh) = DBI->connect("DBI:CSV:f_dir=/usr/local/csv_data");
    my(@list) = $dbh->func('list_tables');

Note that the list includes all files contained in the directory, even those that have non-valid table names, from the view of SQL.

KNOWN BUGS

*

The module is using flock() internally. However, this function is not available on all platforms. Using flock() is disabled on MacOS and Windows 95: There's no locking at all (perhaps not so important on MacOS and Windows 95, as there's a single user anyways).
