  use strict;
  use base qw(Class::DBI::Pg);

 use strict;
 use base qw(Class::DBI::Pg);

 package CD;

 use strict;
 use base qw(Class::DBI);

 __PACKAGE__->set_db(Main => 'dbi:Pg:dbname=db', 'user', 'password');
 __PACKAGE__->table('cd');
 __PACKAGE__->columns(Primary => 'id');
 __PACKAGE__->columns(All => qw(id title artist release_date));
 __PACKAGE__->sequence('cd_id_seq');
