AnyData::Format::Pipe - tiedhash & DBI/SQL access to Pipe delimited files
Contents
Description
This is a plug-in format parser for the AnyData and DBD::AnyData modules. It will read column names from
the first row of the file, or accept names passed by the user. In addition to column names, the user may
set other options as follows:
col_names : a pipe separated list of column names
If you are using this with DBD::AnyData, put ad_ in front of the flags, e.g. ad_eol.
Please refer to the documentation for AnyData.pm and DBD::AnyData.pm for further details.
