I have two records with interlinked fields and foreign key constraints.
To insert the records, I need to turn off the constraint.

In the mysql command-line client I would do this by typing:
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;
and
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;
once the fields were consistent again.

How do I do this from Perl?

Thanks, Dave

$dbh->do('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0');
# do inserts
$dbh->do('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1');

Hope this helps,
