                             sitename => 'test');

XAO::Projects::create_project(name => 'test',
                              object => $config,
                              set_current => 1);

my $fsconfig=XAO::Objects->new(objname => 'FS::Config',
                               odb_args => {
                                   dsn => 'OS:MySQL_DBI:test_os'

my $odb=$config->odb();

DESCRIPTION

The XAO::DO::FS::Config is normally used in larger projects configurations that are persistent in memory. See XAO::DO::Config for more information on how embeddable configuration objects work.

METHODS

disable_special_access ()

Disables use of odb() method to set a new value (this is the default state).

embeddable_methods ()

Used internally by global Config object, returns an array with embeddable method names. Currently there is only one embeddable method -- odb().

enable_special_access ()

Enables use of odb() method to set a new value. Normally you do not need this method.

Example:

$config->enable_special_access();
$config->odb($odb);
$config->disable_special_access();

new ($$)

Creates a new empty configuration object. If odb_args is given then it will connect to a database using these arguments.

Example:

my $fsconfig=XAO::Objects->new(objname => 'FS::Config',
                               odb_args => {
                                   dsn => 'OS:MySQL_DBI:test_os'
                                   user => 'test',
                                   password => 'TeSt',
                               });

odb (;$)

Returns current database handler. If called with an argument and speciall access is enabled then replaces database handler.
