NAME

       LedgerSMB::DBObject - LedgerSMB class for building objects from db relations

SYOPSIS

       This module creates object instances based on LedgerSMB's in-database ORM.

METHODS

       new ($class, base => $LedgerSMB::hash)
           This is the base constructor for all child classes.  It must be used with base
           argument because this is necessary for database connectivity and the like.

           Of course the base object can be any object that inherits LedgerSMB, so you can use
           any subclass of that.  The per-session dbh is passed between the objects this way as
           is any information that is needed.

       exec_method
           ($self, procname => $function_name, [args => \@args, schema => $schema,
           continue_on_error=>$continue_on_error])

           Provides the basic mapping of parameters to the SQL stored procedure function
           arguments.

           If \@args is not defined, args are mapped from the object's properties, stripping them
           of their in_ prefix.  If schema is provided, that is used instead of PostgreSQL's
           search path.  If continue_on_error is provided and true, the operation will not raise
           an exception in the event of a database error, and it will be up to the application to
           handle any exceptions.

       __validate__ is called on every new() invocation.  It is blank in this module but can be
       overridden in decendant modules.
       _db_array_scalars(@elements) creates a db array from scalars.
       _db_array_literal(@elements) creates a multiple dimension db array from preparsed db
       arrays or other data which does not need to be escaped.
       set_ordering
           Sets the ordering used by default for specific functions called by exec_method

       run_custom_queries
           Backward-compatible with 1.2 custom query system for moving forward.
