[Dbix-class] oracle sysdate?

[Hartmaier Alexander]

I strongly suggest to declare your datetime columns as such and use DateTime->now() to get the actual datetime and use that object for your dbic calls!
This way you are dbms independent.

Jennifer,

I have not ever used oracle sysdate with DBIx::Class, but I just  
figured out how to use mysql's now(), which was not immediately  
obvious to me.

I don't know if you're having the same issue, but I'll describe what  
happened to me.

I have a timestamp column called 'last_updated', and I want to update  
it to the current time.

<code>

$row = $schema->resultset(...)->find(...);

# This doesn't work because it treats the 'NOW()' string as a binded variable.
# it crashes because its pushing the literal 'NOW()' into the timestamp column

$row->last_updated('NOW()');
$row->update;

# This does work because when passing in a ref to the scalar,
# bind vars aren't used.

$row->update( { last_updated => \'NOW()' } );

</code>

Maybe the same thing applies to what you're doing with SYSDATE?

Thanks,
Charles Alderman
