This in particular would seem to be an issue with the way DBIx::Class works. The database uses a datatype, and DBIx::Class doesn't abstract the datatype but keeps it as-is. So the code for this in FormFu is database-specific when, after DBI and DBIx::Class, it really should be database agnostic. > I would agree that constraints_from_dbic() has suffered from bitrot. I've got nowhere with it yet on forms, and I can't see what I'm doing wrong, but I'll give it another try with a tidier schema and see what comes of it. I have a couple of ideas for what I want, but it has to work first. -- Ian. _______________________________________________ HTML-FormFu mailing list HTML-FormFu@lists.scsys.co.uk http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/html-formfu
