NAME

	 GO::Model::Xref - cross reference to an external database

SYNOPSIS

	 my $xrefs = $term->dbxref_list();
	 foreach my $xref (@$xrefs) P
	   printf "Term %s has an xref %s:%s
",
		   $term->name, $xref->xref_key, $xref->dbname;
	 }

DESCRIPTION

       represents a cross reference to an external database. an Xref is made up of a key (ie the accession number, or whatever the value of the
       unique field being keyed off of is) and a database name. this should theorerically be enough to uniquely identify any databased entity.

NOTES

       Like all the GO::Model::* classes, this uses accessor methods to get or set the attributes. by using the accessor method without any
       arguments gets the value of the attribute. if you pass in an argument, then the attribuet will be set according to that argument.

       for instance

	 # this sets the value of the attribute
	 $my_object->attribute_name("my value");

	 # this gets the value of the attribute
	 $my_value = $my_object->attribute_name();
