$hash_of_everything = $class->meta_info;

or

$hash_of_relationships = $class->meta_info('has_a');
$hash_of_relationships = $class->meta_info('has_many');

It's not documented yet, but see 
http://www.class-dbi.com/cgi-bin/wiki/index.cgi?CdbiWishList for a 
provisional description. I don't know whether this functionality is 
officially reliable, but it works very nicely at the moment.
