dump_results

Synopsis

$rows = $sth->dump_results($maxlen, $lsep, $fsep, $fh);

Fetches all the rows from $sth, calls DBI::neat_list for each row, and prints the results to $fh (defaults to STDOUT) separated by $lsep (default "\n"). $fsep defaults to ", " and $maxlen defaults to 35.

This method is designed as a handy utility for prototyping and testing queries. Since it uses neat_list to format and edit the string for reading by humans, it is not recomended for data transfer applications.
