Summary: Read Database Large Object Binaries from file handles
Version: 0.2

License: Artistic/GPL
Group: Applications/CPAN
URL: http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBIx-BLOB-Handle/
Description: DBI has a blob_copy_to_file method which takes a file han- dle argument and copies a database large object binary (LOB) to this file handle. However, the method is undocu- mented and faulty. Constructing a similar method yourself is pretty simple but what if you wished to read the data and perform operations on it? You could use the DBI's blob_read method yourself to process chunks of data from the LOB or even dump its contents into a scalar, but maybe it would be nice to read the data line by line or piece by piece from a familiar old filehandle?!

DBIx::BLOB::Handle constructs a tied filehandle that also extends from IO::Handle and IO::Selectable. It wraps DBI's blob_read method. By making LOB's available as a file han- dle to read from we can process the data in a familiar (perly) way.
