It makes sense for you to create connection from a single place of your application, and then pass the connection to the rest (for example your modules).

But how to I pass a connection? would I do it like
use DBI;
use Module;
$dbh- dbi->connect(...);
$variable = $packageName->routine($dbh);
or is there a better way to make the Module Assume that everything called in the main script is useable? | [reply]

"or is there a better way to make the Module Assume that everything called in the main script is useable?"
Unfortunately that is not the better way, many monks here can give a long lecture as why, but let me just make it simple: why should the person call your module know that, inside your module, you expect the connection being named $dbh, not $connection, or $blah?

so, If I passed $dbh into a method, then that method should beable to access all functions attached to $dbh?
