=head1 NAME

SQL::Translator::Utils - SQL::Translator Utility functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use SQL::Translator::Utils qw(debug);
  debug("PKG: Bad things happened");

=head1 DESCSIPTION

C<SQL::Translator::Utils> contains utility functions designed to be
used from the other modules within the C<SQL::Translator> modules.

Nothing is exported by default.

=head1 EXPORTED FUNCTIONS AND CONSTANTS

=head2 debug

C<debug> takes 0 or more messages, which will be sent to STDERR using
C<warn>.  Occurances of the strings I<PKG>, I<SUB>, and I<LINE>
will be replaced by the calling package, subroutine, and line number,
respectively, as reported by C<caller(1)>.

For example, from within C<foo> in F<SQL/Translator.pm>, at line 666:

  debug("PKG: Error reading file at SUB/LINE");

Will warn

  [SQL::Translator: Error reading file at foo/666]

The entire message is enclosed within C<[> and C<]> for visual clarity
when STDERR is intermixed with STDOUT.

=head2 normalize_name

C<normalize_name> takes a string and ensures that it is suitable for
use as an identifier.  This means: ensure that it starts with a letter
or underscore, and that the rest of the string consists of only
letters, numbers, and underscores.  A string that begins with
something other than [a-zA-Z] will be prefixer with an underscore, and
all other characters in the string will be replaced with underscores.
Finally, a trailing underscore will be removed, because that's ugly.

  normalize_name("Hello, world");

Produces:

  Hello_world

A more useful example, from the C<SQL::Translator::Parser::Excel> test
suite:

  normalize_name("silly field (with random characters)");

returns:

  silly_field_with_random_characters

=head2 header_comment

Create the header comment.  Takes 1 mandatory argument (the producer
classname), an optional comment character (defaults to $DEFAULT_COMMENT),
and 0 or more additional comments, which will be appended to the header,
prefixed with the comment character.  If additional comments are provided,
then a comment string must be provided ($DEFAULT_COMMENT is exported for
this use).  For example, this:

  package My::Producer;

  use SQL::Translator::Utils qw(header_comment $DEFAULT_COMMENT);

  print header_comment(__PACKAGE__,
                       $DEFAULT_COMMENT,
                       "Hi mom!");

produces:

  --
  -- Created by My::Prodcuer
  -- Created on Fri Apr 25 06:56:02 2003
  --
  -- Hi mom!
  --

Note the gratuitous spacing.

=head2 parse_list_arg

Takes a string, list or arrayref (all of which could contain
comma-separated values) and returns an array reference of the values.
All of the following will return equivalent values:

  parse_list_arg('id');
  parse_list_arg('id', 'name');
  parse_list_arg( 'id, name' );
  parse_list_arg( [ 'id', 'name' ] );
  parse_list_arg( qw[ id name ] );

=head2 $DEFAULT_COMMENT

This is the default comment string, '-- ' by default.  Useful for
C<header_comment>.
