=head1 NAME

Bio::EnsEMBL::DBSQL::DBAdaptor

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  $db = Bio::EnsEMBL::DBSQL::DBAdaptor->new(
    -user   => 'root',
    -dbname => 'pog',
    -host   => 'caldy',
    -driver => 'mysql'
  );

  $gene_adaptor = $db->get_GeneAdaptor();

  $gene = $gene_adaptor->fetch_by_stable_id($stable_id);

  $slice =
    $db->get_SliceAdaptor()->fetch_by_chr_start_end( 'X', 1, 10000 );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Formerly this class provided database connectivity and a means
to retrieve object adaptors.  This class is now provided for
convenience and backwards compatibility, and delegates its connection
responsibilities to the DBConnection class (no longer inherited from)
and its object adaptor retrieval to the static Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry.

Please use Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry to retrieve object adaptors.

  Arg [-DNADB]: (optional) Bio::EnsEMBL::DBSQL::DBAdaptor DNADB 
               All sequence, assembly, contig information etc, will
               be retrieved from this database instead.

  Arg [-NO_CACHE]: (optional) int 1
               This option will turn off caching for slice features,
               so, every time a set of features is retrieved,
               they will come from the database instead of the
               cache.  This option is only recommended for advanced
               users, specially if you need to store and retrieve
               features.  It might reduce performance when querying
               the database if not used properly.  If in doubt, do
               not use it or ask in the developer mailing list.

  Example    : $db_adaptor->add_ExternalFeatureAdaptor($xfa);
  Description: Adds an external feature adaptor to this database adaptor.
               Adding the external adaptor in this way allows external
               features to be obtained from Slices and from RawContigs.

               The external feature adaptor which is passed to this method
               will have its db attribuite set to this DBAdaptor object via 
               the db accessor method. 

               ExternalFeatureAdaptors passed to this method are stored 
               internally in a hash keyed on the string returned by the 
               ExternalFeatureAdaptors track_name method.
               
               If the track name method is not implemented then the 
               a default key named 'External features' is assigned.  In the
               event of duplicate key names, a number is appended to the
               key name, and incremented for each subsequent adaptor with the
               same track name.  For example, if no track_names are specified 
               then the the external feature adaptors will be stored under the
               keys 'External features', 'External features2'
