I typically use them together. Apache::DBI handles the persistence, and the singleton provides easy access from any module that wants to use it. It also centralizes the db configuration in one spot. I would caution anyone against rolling their own database handle persistence system, using simple tricks with globals. It's much better to use DBI->connect_cached() if you are unable to use Apache::DBI for some reason. - Perrin -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
