Name
Bio::DB::Failover - A Bio::DB::RandomAccessI compliant class which wraps a prioritized list of DBs
Synopsis
$failover = Bio::DB::Failover->new();
$failover->add_database($db);
# fail over Bio::DB::RandomAccessI.pm
# this will check each database in priority, returning when
# the first one succeeds
$seq = $failover->get_Seq_by_id($id);
