30DESCRIPTION
31
32This Class::DBI plugin combines the functionality from
33Class::DBI::Plugin::CountSearch (counting objects without having to use an
34array or an iterator), and Class::DBI::AbstractSearch, which allows complex
35where-clauses a la SQL::Abstract.
36
37METHODS
38
39 count_search_where
40
41 Takes a hashref with the abstract where-clause. An additional attribute
42 hashref can be passed to influence the default behaviour: arrayrefs are
43 OR'ed, hashrefs are AND'ed.
44
45TODO
46
47More tests, more doc.
