Re^2: DBIx::Class creating get_* and set_* methods

[jrockway]

Never use get_column and set_column directly unless you know what the side-effects are. They don't work the same way as using the accessors. Inflation is skipped, resultsets are not returned for relationships, etc.

Never use get_column and set_column directly unless you know what the side-effects are.

I would rather say "the absence of side-effects" ;-)
(That's exactly why I often use them and I find them perfectly adequate to get the columns raw values.)

Anyway you are right, I should have specified that's not exactly the same semantics of the generated accessors.
