Well, the new author is me, Jesse Vincent. The module is SearchBuilder. I've been hacking on a DBIx:: module as part of a trouble ticketing system called RT that I'm the primary author of. A number of folks have told me that it would make a good CPAN contribution, so here I am. SearchBuilder has been discussed in its former life as DBIx::EasySearch on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Description: SearchBuilder is a pure-perl abstarction layer on top of DBI which allows programers to build complex select statements with multiple calls to a couple fairly simple primitives. This ends up being particularly useful for "refining" existing searches. It also comes with a class called DBIx::SearchBuilder::Row which allows simple OO access to the data from a single database row. SearchBuilder returns its results as a set of DBIx::SearchBuilder::Rows Name: Jesse Vincent Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Preferred CPAN Id: JESSE Homepage: http://www.fsck.com/ SearchBuilder bdpO OO abstraction for compound searches JESSE Thanks!
