=head1 NAME

DBI::Gofer::Serializer::Storable - Gofer serialization using Storable

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    $serializer = DBI::Gofer::Serializer::Storable->new();

    $string = $serializer->serialize( $data );
    ($string, $deserializer_class) = $serializer->serialize( $data );

    $data = $serializer->deserialize( $string );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Uses Storable::nfreeze() to serialize and Storable::thaw() to deserialize.

The serialize() method sets local $Storable::forgive_me = 1; so it doesn't
croak if it encounters any data types that can't be serialized, such as code refs.

See also L<DBI::Gofer::Serializer::Base>.
