Subject: (Doc issue) "DBIx::Class::Manual::Joins" needs note about "prefetch"
Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2009 20:33:54 -0600
To: bug-DBIx-Class [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Sundial Services <sundial.services [...] gmail.com>
This one threw me for several(!!) days... The example in "DBIx::Class::Manual::Joins" (about "across multiple relations" .. tables and chairs and legs and stuff ..) badly needs to make a point about "prefetch." Namely, that the "prefetch" list needs to match the "join" list. You do, in fact, talk about that explicitly ... in "Cookbook." But that's "in a galaxy far, far away." The "manual on joining" page needs to emphasize this crucial point. Without it, it's very likely that (as in my case...) what you try to do, "following the example," just won't work and you just won't know why not.

I would say this is an actual bug - the join list should be correctly merged, coming from both prefetch and join. Please submit several failing test additions to t/77prefetch.t (svn http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/DBIx-Class/0.08/trunk). Thanks

Can you provide us with an example of such a failure? I couldn't duplicate this here. Thanks

Latest test additions[1] indicate that this bug is either no longer in the current code base, or that there is something additional the reporter did to trigger it. Rejecting as no more information is available. [1]: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/svnweb/bast/view/DBIx-Class/0.08/branches/diamond_relationships/t/prefetch/diamond.t?rev=6157
