Note that fetching hashrefs is (much) slower than fetching arrayrefs. Most often this is marginal compared to the time spent in getting the data from the database, but in many cases, you can bring the speed back by using bind_columns:
my $sth = $dbh->prepare ("select * from foo");
$sth->execute;
my (@fields, %r) = @{$sth->{NAME_lc}};
$sth->bind_columns (\@r{@fields});
while ($sth->fetch) {
# Do something with the record. Fields are stored in %r
printf "%-16s: %s\n", $_, $r{$_} // "--undef--" for @fields;
}
Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
