NAME

Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper::MP13 - connection info and dbh cache manager for mod_perl 1

SYNOPSIS

    use Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper::MP13;

    # put these PerlSetVars in your conf (as needed):
    #   dbconn
    #   dbuser
    #   dbpass
    #   auth_dbconn
    #   auth_dbuser
    #   auth_dbpass
    

DESCRIPTION

When you use a model which inherits from Gantry::Utils::CDBI or Gantry::Utils::Model, using this module can help with database connection management. Feel free to implement your own subclass of Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper if you need more control.

This module is designed to work with mod_perl 1.3. There is another module for mod_perl 2 candidates: Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper::MP20.

METHODS

See Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper for a description of the methods available here. But note that there are no set_conn_info or set_auth_conn_info methods. All values are taken from PerlSetVars.

If you do not define an auth_dbconn PerlSetVar, this module will return the regular connection information, if it is ever asked for auth connection information.

Here is a list of the methods documented in Gantry::Utils::DBConnHelper.

get_auth_conn_info
get_auth_dbh
get_conn_info
get_dbh
set_auth_dbh
set_dbh
