Paul -- I think you mean all the SQL should be in C4, and yes I agree with that. C4::Table does not receive any SQL as arguments to select, insert or delete. I.E., it preserves the encapsulation of SQL inside C4/*.
This would speed up development of features because a C4/NewFeature.pm module might not be necessary at all, or could focus on things special to NewFeature besides basic table operations. Once a table is added to the DB, C4::Table can access it, no new code necessary. And the other code will be more recognizable, using the same kind of $table->select({fieldname=>"value"}) statements. Would be nice to be able to use the same OO code accessing issues and old_issues, or any of the XX and old_XX tables, for example. --Joe On Tue, Nov 4, 2008 at 12:43 PM, Paul POULAIN <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Joe Atzberger a écrit : > > The purpose of Table is to provide all the basic functionality that > > is reimplemented multiple times throughout Koha for each DB table. > > This code is considered experimental and does not yet supplant any > > production code.

I think having all Perl in C4/*.pm is a good way.
