This module automates the process of tying data from a database to widgets build with Gtk2 or Wx.

Steps for use:

• Create a DataManager object that contains the rows to display. Use DbiDataManager, RdbDataManager or DbcDataManager depending on how you access the database: sql commands and DBI, DBIx::Class or Rose::DB::Object

• Create a Gtk2::GladeXML object to construct the Gtk2 windows or a xrc resource file to build a Wx Window. Names of the fields in the form have to be identical with the fields in the tables.

• Create a Gtk2::Ex::DbLinker::Form or a Wx::Perl::DbLinker::Wxform object that links the data and the windows

• Cnnect the buttons to methods that handle common actions such as inserting, moving, deleting, etc.
