Convert the schema documentation into a Perl class that contains the same
information but can also return the SQL commands or apply them to a
database.

Please do not copy this - data into some other file that could get out of sync with this - documentation; instead, if it's necessary to change the format, please - move this file elsewhere and keep the documentation with the schema. - -Object Metadata - - Each object stored in the wallet is represented by an entry in the - objects table: - - create table objects - (ob_name varchar(255) not null, - ob_type varchar(16) - not null references types(ty_name), - ob_owner integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_acl_get integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_acl_store integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_acl_show integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_acl_destroy integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_acl_flags integer default null references acls(ac_id), - ob_expires datetime default null, - ob_created_by varchar(255) not null, - ob_created_from varchar(255) not null, - ob_created_on datetime not null, - ob_stored_by varchar(255) default null, - ob_stored_from varchar(255) default null, - ob_stored_on datetime default null, - ob_downloaded_by varchar(255) default null, - ob_downloaded_from varchar(255) default null, - ob_downloaded_on datetime default null, - primary key (ob_name, ob_type), - index (ob_owner), - index (ob_expires)); - - Object names are not globally unique but only unique within their - type, so the table has a joint primary key. I haven't yet decided - what indices the table will need. - - Each object has an owner and then up to five more specific ACLs. The - ob_acl_flags ACL controls who can set flags on this object.
