NAME

DBIx::NamedBinding - use named parameters instead of '?'

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

This module subclasses the DBI and allows you to use named query parameter placeholders instead of positional '?'.

    use DBI;

    my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, {
        RootClass => 'DBIx::NamedBinding',
    } );
    my $sth = $dbh->prepare('
        SELECT * FROM foo WHERE
            price        <     :price     AND
            sale_price   =     0          AND
            location     =     :location  AND
            inventory    >     :inventory AND
            sku          LIKE  :sku
    ');
    $sth->bind_param( price     => 14.95  );
    $sth->bind_param( location  => 'BMWH' );
    $sth->bind_param( inventory => 4      );
    $sth->bind_param( sku       => 'OH%'  );

    my $rv = $sth->execute();
        

Other than that, just use it like one would use the DBI.
