What’s new? (since the book)
$dbh->selectrow_hashref()
$dbh->selectrow_arrayref()
- new one-call prepare + execute + fetch utility methods
$sth = $dbh->table_info(…)
- DBI spec now allows parameters to qualify which tables you want info on
$dbh->quote($string, $type)
- now much faster if a $type argument is given (caches quoting data from type_info_all)
$dbh->type_info_all()
- now also much faster due to added caching
