Package: libsql-tiny-perl (0.04-2)

simple SQL-building library

SQL::Tiny is a very simple SQL-building library. It's not for all SQL needs, only the very simple ones.

SQL::Tiny is for generating SQL code for simple cases. It doesn't handle JOINs. It doesn't handle GROUP BY. It doesn't handle subselects. It's only for simple SQL.

The trade-off for that brevity of code is that SQL::Tiny has to make new SQL and binds from the input every time. You can't cache the SQL that comes back from SQL::Tiny because the placeholders could vary depending on what the input data is. Therefore, you don't want to use SQL::Tiny where speed is essential.
