[Bioperl-l] Biosql documentation request

Hilmar,

Neither does the ERD show nullability. The ERD is good but some useful
information is missing, yes.

The ERD is dated 6/4/2003, is this the latest version? Pardon my ignorance.

Brian, if I understand the output correctly it only documents the
schema elements. Do you feel that the ERD (doc/biosql-ERD.pdf) does not
fulfill this purpose well enough?

The ERD diagram actually doesn't show the unique key constraints, so
that would be a difference indeed.
