Re^4: Abstracting Class::DBI Database Connection Data

Maybe someone with a little more knowledge on this than I can provide a working example?

Yes, exactly. I think I get what I need to do, but I most certainly don't have a clue how to do it. If anyone has some working code they'd be willing to share, I would be very grateful.

Sorry, that was a copy/paste from the mailing list. You can just call DBI->connect_cached(), but you have to set some other things that are described on the mailing list. That's the best place to look for this info. However, I think you're making it too hard. The only thing wrong with what you have is that you are passing data around by serializing it and sticking it in %ENV. Why not just make your $cfg object available from other classes? Stash it in a global and then make a simple accessor like MyCfg::get_cfg() that MyCDBI can call to get it.	[reply]
