=head1 NAME

DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::LimitDialects - SQL::Abstract::Limit-like functionality for DBIx::Class::SQLMaker

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module replicates a lot of the functionality originally found in
L. While simple limits would work as-is, the more
complex dialects that require e.g. subqueries could not be reliably
implemented without taking full advantage of the metadata locked within
L classes. After reimplementation of close to
80% of the L functionality it was deemed more
practical to simply make an independent DBIx::Class-specific limit-dialect
provider.

=head1 SQL LIMIT DIALECTS

Note that the actual implementations listed below never use C<*> literally.
Instead proper re-aliasing of selectors and order criteria is done, so that
the limit dialect are safe to use on joined resultsets with clashing column
names.

Currently the provided dialects are:

=head2 LimitOffset

 SELECT ... LIMIT $limit OFFSET $offset

Supported by B and B

=cut

      $sql .= " OFFSET ?";
      push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset ];
    }
    return $sql;
}

=head2 LimitXY

 SELECT ... LIMIT $offset, $limit

Supported by B and any L based DBD

=cut

    $sql .= $self->_parse_rs_attrs( $rs_attrs ) . " LIMIT ";

=head2 RowNumberOver

 SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY ... ) AS RNO__ROW__INDEX FROM (
   SELECT ...
  )
 ) WHERE RNO__ROW__INDEX BETWEEN ($offset+1) AND ($limit+$offset)


ANSI standard Limit/Offset implementation. Supported by B and
B<< MSSQL >= 2005 >>.

=head2 SkipFirst

 SELECT SKIP $offset FIRST $limit * FROM ...

 SELECT * FROM (

 WHERE (

This is the most evil limit "dialect" (more of a hack) for I stupid
databases. It works by ordering the set by some unique column, and calculating
the amount of rows that have a less-er value (thus emulating a L-like
index). Of course this implies the set can only be ordered by a single unique
column.

Also note that this technique can be and often is B. You
may have much better luck using L
instead.

Currently used by B, due to lack of any other option.
