DBIx::C...:Cursor(3)

💅 NAME 💅

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere::Cursor</p> — okay bestie, say that five times fast 😭 literally the GUID Support for SQL Anywhere over DBD::SQLAnywhere situation, and yes the full name is a whole mouthful, we don't make the rules 💀

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So this class exists for exactly one (1) iconic job: normalizing GUIDs that come back from SQL Anywhere via DBD::SQLAnywhere. That's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

ngl you probably don't want to be here 🫶 like genuinely — if you're looking for actual info on the SQL Anywhere driver, go read DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere instead, that's your main character.

Here's the tea though 🙈 unfortunately when you're using DBD::SQLAnywhere, GUIDs come back in binary, which is lowkey giving unreadable chaos. So the entire purpose of this class is to transform them into text ✨ problem solved, slay.

And it's automatic, no cap — DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere sets cursor_class to this class by default. But you're not locked in, it's overridable via your connect_info 💖 so do your thing.

Also!! Good news for the DBIx::Class::Cursor::Cached girlies 🦋 you can use it safely with this class and not lose the GUID normalizing functionality — because ::Cursor::Cached uses the underlying class data for the inner cursor class. Best of both worlds, we love to see it 👑
