Absolutely! When you are doing complicated reporting rollups (multiple joins, subqueries, aggregate functions) that can be arbitrarily tweaked, sorted, paged etc. then modifying with DBIC is often just a case of tweaking a single hash declaration... (Whereas updating a dynamic SQL codegen may well involve an hour of headscratching... Not to mention the other hour of debugging later, because you forgot to add a space or comma that kicks in with some rarely used set of parameters...) osfameron _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
