DBIx::SQLEngine::Driver::XBase - Support DBD::XBase driver

DBI Wrapper: Adds methods to a DBI database handle.

  my $sqldb = DBIx::SQLEngine->new( 'dbi:XBase:my_data_path' );

Portability Subclasses: Uses driver's idioms or emulation.

  $hash_ary = $sqldb->fetch_select( 
    table => 'students',
    where => { name => 'Dave' },
  );

This package provides a subclass of DBIx::SQLEngine which compensates for some of DBD::XBase's idiosyncrasies.

Note that DBD::XBase does not support the normal full range of SQL DBMS functionality. Consult the documentation to understand its current limits.

You do not need to use this package directly; when you connect to a database, the SQLEngine object is automatically re-blessed in to the appropriate subclass.

  $sqldb->sql_detect_table ( $tablename )  : %sql_select_clauses

Implemented using DBD::XBase's "select * from $tablename where 1 = 0".

  $sqldb->dbms_null_becomes_emptystring () : 1

Capability Limitation: This driver does not store real null or undefined values, converting them instead to empty strings.
