# DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere::Cursor(3pm)

GUID Support for SQL Anywhere over DBD::SQLAnywhere

## NAME

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere::Cursor - GUID Support for SQL Anywhere over DBD::SQLAnywhere

## DESCRIPTION

This class is for normalizing GUIDs retrieved from SQL Anywhere via DBD::SQLAnywhere.

You probably don't want to be here, see DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere for information on the SQL Anywhere driver.

Unfortunately when using DBD::SQLAnywhere, GUIDs come back in binary, the purpose of this class is to transform them to text. DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::SQLAnywhere sets cursor\_class to this class by default. It is overridable via your connect\_info.

You can use DBIx::Class::Cursor::Cached safely with this class and not lose the GUID normalizing functionality, ::Cursor::Cached uses the underlying class data for the inner cursor class.
