NAME

Alzabo::SQLMaker::PostgreSQL - Alzabo SQL making class for PostgreSQL

SYNOPSIS

  use Alzabo::SQLMaker;
  my $sql = Alzabo::SQLMaker->new( sql => 'PostgreSQL' );

DESCRIPTION

PostgreSQL-specific SQL creation.

METHODS

Almost all of the functionality inherited from "Alzabo::SQLMaker" as is. The only overridden methods are limit() and get_limit(), as PostgreSQL does allow for a "LIMIT" clause in its SQL.
