DBIx::Config is a new module I've written to simplify connecting to
databases and passing the resulting handles between packages. Before
uploading to CPAN, I'd like to see what people around here think.
Please comment in either a followup here or in an email to tobeya at
cpan dot org
Of course, I have a few test written that will be bundled with this that
aren't on the web yet.
A topic worth discussing that I realized in the process of writing this is
the lack of "good" ways to test DBI subclassing modules. The best I've
found is either writing your own dummy DBD or DBD::CSV. I wonder
how hard or useful it would be to write a Test::DBI module .... A
quick/random survey of other DBIx modules shows that not much testing is
done in that namespace.
Thanks!
