SYNOPSIS

# get an objects containing database cross reference
foreach $obj ( @objs ) {
if( $obj->isa('Bio::DBLinkContainerI') ) {
foreach $dblink ( $obj->each_DBLink() ) {
# do stuff
}
}
}

DESCRIPTION

This interface defines the functions one can expect for any object wanting to use database cross-references. This class does not actually provide any implementation, it just provides the definitions of what methods one can call.

The database cross-references are implemented as Bio::Annotation::DBLink objects.
