Hi, I'm using 'cascade_copy => 0' in a couple of my 'has_many' relationships, and only stumbled across it by looking through the perl actual code for the 'DBIx::Class::Relationship::HasMany' module, as it appears to be absent from the DBIx::Class::Relationship documentation. Here is a patch to add some notes about its use to the documentation:
--- ./temp/DBIx-Class-0.07005/lib/DBIx/Class/Relationship.pm 2007-01-11 08:41:10.00 0000000 +0000 +++ ./temp/Relationship.pm 2007-03-30 15:10:02.000000000 +0100 @@ -206,6 +206,11 @@ database-level cascade or restrict will take precedence over a DBIx-Class-based cascading delete. +If you copy an object in a class with a C<has_many> relationship, all the related +objects will be copied as well. To turn this behaviour off, pass +C<< cascade_copy => 0 >> in the C<$attr> hashref. The behaviour defaults to +C<< cascade_copy => 1 >>. + See L<DBIx::Class::Relationship::Base> for documentation on relationship methods and valid relationship attributes.
