I am currently looking at building a Perl object to handle data from a a database. I'm not really sure if it is best to have one connection to MySQL and let the object just deal with its own properties. Or to allow the object to initiate a DBI connection each time an instance of the object is created, and to disconnect() using garbage disposal.
Although the object initially would only have one instance per script, I can't help feeling it is a bad idea. Any thoughts welcome, and greatly appreciated, Tom Norwood.
