=head1 NAME

Bio::EnsEMBL::Compara::DBSQL::BaseRelationAdaptor

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Base class for the adaptors that deal with sets of members, like
FamilyAdaptor or HomologyAdaptor

NB: only used to provide fetch_all_by_method_link_type() to those
two adaptors

=head1 APPENDIX

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.
Internal methods are usually preceded with an underscore (_)

=head2 fetch_all_by_method_link_type

  Arg [1]    : string $method_link_type
               the method type used to filter the objects
  Example    : $homologies = $adaptor->fetch_all_by_method_link_type('ENSEMBL_ORTHOLOGUES')
  Description: Returns the list of all the objects whose MethodLinkSpeciesSet
                matches the method with the type $method_link_type
  Returntype : ArrayRef of MemberSet
  Exceptions : thrown if $method_link_type is not defined
  Caller     : general
