SYNOPSIS

  my $dbiHydra = Bio::Das::ProServer::SourceHydra::dbi->new();

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

sources : DBI sources

  Effectively returns the results of a SHOW TABLES LIKE '$basename%'
  query. In Oracle I guess this would need changing to table_name from
  all_tables where like '$basename%' or something.
  my @sources = $dbihydra->sources();

  $basename comes from $self->config->{'basename'};

  This routine caches results for $CACHE_TIMEOUT as show tables can be
  slow for a few thousand sources.

last_modified : machine time of last data change

  Gets the most recent update time for any of the hydra's tables.
  Only knows how to do this for MySQL databases.
  my $unixtime = $dbihydra->last_modified();
