[Dbix-class] Storable freeze/thaw on a column?

[Mike Friedman]

Greetings,

I'm looking at the docs for DBIx::Class::Serialize::Storable (
http://search.cpan.org/~bricas/DBIx-Class-0.07003/lib/DBIx/Class/Serialize/=
Storable.pm)

The Synopsis refers to some mysterious thing called $cache; what is that?
All I want to do is automatically freeze and thaw a Storable blob in one
column of a table. I gather I need to write a pair of methods to hook
STORABLE_freeze and STORABLE_thaw, but I can't seem to find out how to write
these or what parameters to expect, etc.

Any help will be rewarded with a doc patch. :)

Thanks,

Mike


P.S. What exactly is the difference between D::C::Serialize and
D::C::InflateColumn? For example, I noticed D::C::InflateColumn::DateTime
which I'm planning to use also and which seems to do roughly the same thing,
except for DateTime objects instead of Storable.
