In a previous post, I mentioned that I needed a way to limit a "select" statement without having to quit my mysql session whenever the results got too long. Someone sent me the following solution:

SELECT * 
  FROM foo
 LIMIT 0,50

This will definitely do what I need, although I still should research how to break a command without killing the session.

Most of my time today was spent going through tutorial materials that I was referred to to help me get up to speed on the Catalyst database stuff. I can't get the demonstration code to work, but it might be because we don't have something installed, and I think I can still learn a fair amount by looking through the materials.

I realized in the middle of the day that I hadn't turned in an application for something unrelated, so I clocked out for a couple of hours to get that done. Also, we have tomorrow off!

After I work through this tutorial, I'm going to take up an offer that someone on the mailing list made to me. He authored the module I'm working with, and he's willing to debug with me in chat. Very generous.

Notes for Wednesday:

  • Make up time
  • Keep going through tutorial. (Ready to start reading 4. Authentication, but need to replace its bad links. Notes are saved as "jun19")
  • Don't forget to keep master todo list up to date
  • Find out how to interrupt mysql command without killing the session
