Re^4: RFC DBIx::Handy

[techcode]

Yeah Handy doesn't say much - I agree that it should be changed to something more meaningful.

I also agree that TMTOWTDI is not universally good thing - it's actually brought up as a bad side of Perl when it's compared to other languages (they say code is harder to be maintained but I say it's all about coding standards and style).

I was looking into those abstraction modules and as pointed out they were either overkill with complexity or simply didn't do what I wanted - so I implemented that on my own (some point out they are slow too). I've recently faced a problem of needing to pass around my initial DBH so I added that to the module too - then I realised that my project needs more than one DB connection, so I'm slowly adding that too.

I have no idea where it will end - but at this stage I also don't think that it's even near to get on CPAN.

If nothing else - it's great experience :)
