I have two databases that are very similar. For example, the "person" table
in one db has an "email" column and the other does not have that column,
otherwise the tables are the same.
My application uses the schema with the table that has the "email" column, so
there's places in the application that call $person->get_column( 'email' ), and
also $person_rs->create( { name => $name, email => $email } );
Now, I want to use the second schema with the same application, but as
mentioned above does not have an "email" column on the person table. it's not
important that the column does not exist.
My question is what can I do to make get_column and create (and other methods
that assume there is an "email" column) work without this column defined in the
result class. Is there any way to have define a column that is never used when
constructing database queries?
Hi,
Use in the Result class:
__PACKAGE__->mk_group_accessors( simple => 'email' );
