-This is an SQL to OO mapper with an object API inspired by L<Class::DBI>
+DBIx::Class (aka DBIC) is an SQL to OO mapper with an object API inspired by L<Class::DBI>
(with a compatibility layer as a springboard for porting) and a resultset API
that allows abstract encapsulation of database operations. It aims to make
representing queries in your code as perl-ish as possible while still
including retrieving related records from multiple tables in a single query,
JOIN, LEFT JOIN, COUNT, DISTINCT, GROUP BY, ORDER BY and HAVING support.
-DBIx::Class can handle multi-column primary and foreign keys, complex
+DBIC can handle multi-column primary and foreign keys, complex
queries and database-level paging, and does its best to only query the
database in order to return something you've directly asked for. If a
resultset is used as an iterator it only fetches rows off the statement
as bugs are found and fixed.
We do our best to maintain full backwards compatibility for published
-APIs, since DBIx::Class is used in production in many organisations,
+APIs, since DBIC is used in production in many organisations,
and even backwards incompatible changes to non-published APIs will be fixed
if they're reported and doing so doesn't cost the codebase anything.
