NAME

DBIx::DBO2 - Objects mapping to SQL relational structures

SYNOPSIS

package MyRecord;
use DBIx::DBO2::Record '-isasubclass';
my $sql_engine = DBIx::SQLEngine->new( $dsn, $user, $pass );

MyRecord->table(
  DBIx::DBO2::Table->new(name=>'myrecords', datasource=>$sql_engine)
);

package main;
my $results = MyRecord->fetch_all;
foreach my $record ( $results->records ) {
  if ( $record->{age} > 20 ) {
    $record->{status} = 'adult';
    $record->save_row;
  }
}

DESCRIPTION

DBIx::DBO2 is an object-relational mapping framework (or perhaps a relational-object mapping framework, if I understand the distinction correctly) that facilitates the development of Perl classes whose objects are stored in a SQL database table.

The following classes are included:

Table		TableSet
Column	ColumnSet
Record	RecordSet
Fields

Each Table object represents a single SQL table.

Each Record object represents a single row in a SQL table.

The Fields class generates accessor methods for Record classes.

The nameSet classes are each simple classes for blessed arrays of class name.
