DBIx::Sequence - A simple SQL92 ID generator

	This module is intended to give easier portability to Perl
	database application by providing a database independant
	unique ID generator.  This way, an application developer
	is not bound to use his database's SEQUENCE or auto_increment
	thus making his application portable on multiple database
	environnements.

	This module implements a simple Spin Locker mechanism and
	is garanteed to return a unique value every time it is
	called, even with concurrent processes. It uses your database
	for its state storage with ANSI SQL92 compliant SQL. All
	SQL queries inside DBIx::Sequence are pre cached and very
	efficient especially under mod_perl.
