dbi debugging aid

Want to know what sql you're throwing at the database but you're binding variables. This should do the trick:

use Text::Wrap;
my $temp = $sql;
$temp =~ s/\?/$dbh->quote($_)/e for @data;
print $cgi->pre(wrap('','',$temp));

  • DBI->trace(2) is your friend.
  • What happens if one of your values contains a question mark? I had a similar bug in the DBI-ish class I was writing in PHP a few weeks back.
    • Doh. I didn't think of that :(

      This works for that case:

      my $i = 0;
      $temp =~ s/\?/$dbh->quote($data[$i++])/ge;
