I just wanted to start looking at the specific methods for dealing with
related objects. So I started at Manual::Intro - nothing there AFAICS.
It gives just two links: FAQ & Cookbook. That's a little surprise, it
implies there's no more basic documentation, tutorial etc. Where should
I go to learn more after the Intro? Why didn't it list the other Manual
docs? Like the index!
Anyway, so I look at the cookbook - nothing about relationships except
for a how to do many to many which is a link to
DBIx::Class::Relationship::ManyToMany. So at least I now know there are
some DBIC::Relationship classes :)
The link to the FAQ gives:
Not found
Whatever it was you were looking for, it's not here. This may be
due to...
* You made a typo in the URL
* What you are looking for no longer exists on CPAN
* You followed an invalid link. If this is the case, please inform
the maintainer of the refering page
HTH, Dave
PS Rereading the Intro, I see there is a mention of relationships buried
at the end of "Setting it up manually" - not the easiest thing to find.
