Safe and DBIby tetromino (Initiate) |

tetromino has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I am trying to use DBI (DBD::SQLite) inside a Safe compartment, but I can't figure out a way to do it. My initial approach was to create a connection in the main program, then write a function to call do() etc. on that connection, and finally to share() the function into the safe compartment. Doesn't work: produces Had to create DBI::_dbistate unexpectedly at ./mrmonitor.pl line 232. and the program freezes. So I tried creating a new connection inside the compartment: and I get Can't locate object method "connect" via package "DBI" (perhaps you forgot to load "DBI"?) at ./mrmonitor.pl line 228. I could add "DBI::connect" (and a bunch of other DBI/DBD methods) to the compartment -- but that would defeat the entire purpose of a Safe compartment, because it would let user code access databases however it feels like. Is there a solution to this problem, or should I just not use Safe in this case?
