+
+DESCRIPTION
+    FS::dbdef_table objects represent a single database table.
+
+METHODS
+    new Creates a new FS::dbdef_table object.
+
+    addcolumn
+        Adds this FS::dbdef_column object.
+
+    name
+        Returns or sets the table name.
+
+    primary_key
+        Returns or sets the primary key.
+
+    unique
+        Returns or sets the FS::dbdef_unique object.
+
+    index
+        Returns or sets the FS::dbdef_index object.
+
+    columns
+        Returns a list consisting of the names of all columns.
+
+    column "column"
+        Returns the column object (see the FS::dbdef_column manpage)
+        for "column".
+
+    sql_create_table [ $datasrc ]
+        Returns an array of SQL statments to create this table.
+
+        If passed a DBI $datasrc specifying the DBD::mysql manpage,
+        will use MySQL-specific syntax. Non-standard syntax for
+        other engines (if applicable) may also be supported in the
+        future.

+HISTORY
+    class for dealing with table definitions
+
+    ivan@sisd.com 98-apr-18
+
+    gained extra functions (should %columns be an IxHash?)
+    ivan@sisd.com 98-may-11
+
+    sql_create_table returns a list of statments, not just one, and
+    now it does indices (plus mysql hack) ivan@sisd.com 98-jun-2
+
+    untaint primary_key... hmm. is this a hack around a bigger
+    problem? looks like, did the same thing singles in colgroup!
