=head1 NAME
Maypole - MVC web application framework

package ProductDatabase;
- use base 'Maypole';
+ use base 'Apache::MVC';

- BeerDB->config->{uri_base} = "http://your.site/catalogue/";

ProductDatabase::Product->has_a("category" => ProductDatabase::Category);
# ...
$r->template("template_name");
}
- ProductDatabase->config->{model_class} = "ProductDatabase::Model";
+Then your top-level application package should change the model class:
+(Before calling C<setup>)
+
+ ProductDatabase->config->{model} = "ProductDatabase::Model";
(The C<:Exported> attribute means that the method can be called via the
URL C</I<table>/supersearch/...>.)
You should probably not use Maypole directly. Maypole is an abstract
class which does not specify how to communicate with the outside world.
The most popular subclass of Maypole is L<Apache::MVC>, which interfaces
