in reply to CPAN hopeful: need your input on DBIx::TableHash

You might want to look at getting rid of the table maintenance stuff and using Data::CTable instead. I haven't used it yet, but it looks quite useful and a more general purpose data structure than what you've presented here.

    Thanks for the comment! ;-)

    You are absolutely right and in fact I did notice this and a few other similar modules on the CPAN. Unfortunately, this is a few feet away from what I'm trying to accomplish. Being that close in principle, I even thought of extending original modules to allow me to pull data directly from an SQL database. Further, I don't need a lot of fency manipulation routines such as offered by the module (Data::CTable). And, too, I don't need to keep data in tabular files.

    Cheers,

    vladb.
