LibDBLayers-1.0 manages the SavedVariables of your addon.

• Difference between LibDBLayers and AceDB:
  • No metatables. Settings for an object are flattened into a single table.
  • Settings can be shared per account (global), class, or spec (custom).
• It offers support for defaults, and a layered hierarchy of settings.
• It is designed to have verbose layered settings in your AddonOptionsDB which is only loaded and used when setting up defaults or changing options.
• The layered settings are flattenned into single compact tables for each object in your AddonDB
• Support for versioning

Normal use

• Iterate through the character/spec setup and create create your objects and assign their flattened dbx from AddonDB.objects to them.
• Dereference myObject: myObject.dbx.mySavedVariable1 etc.

First time use

• The lod options of your mod gets loaded
• AddonDB and AddonOptionsDB are created
• Default settings for the current character are added.

Upgrade use

• An obsolete version causes MyAddonOptions (+ any MyAddonPlugin1Options etc.) to load.
• The new options are added (if possible)

Note this is still under development and currently guided by Grid2 needs.
