/**
 * Database abstraction library
 *
 * This allows eGroupWare to use multiple database backends via ADOdb or in future with PDO
 *
 * You only need to clone the global database object $GLOBALS['egw']->db if:
 * - you access an application table (non phpgwapi) and you want to call set_app()
 *
 * Otherwise you can simply use $GLOBALS['egw']->db or a reference to it.
 *
 * a) foreach($db->query("SELECT * FROM $table",__LINE__,__FILE__) as $row)
 *
 * b) foreach($db->select($api_table,'*',$where,__LINE__,__FILE__) as $row)
 *
 * c) foreach($db->select($table,'*',$where,__LINE__,__FILE__,false,'',$app) as $row)
 *
 * To fetch only a single column (of the next row):
 *		$cnt = $db->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ...")->fetchColumn($column_num=0);
 *
 * To fetch a next (single) row, you can use:
 *		$row = $db->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ...")->fetch($fetchmod=null);
 *
 * Api\Db allows to use exceptions to catch sql-erros, not existing tables or failure to connect to the database, eg.:
 *		try {
 *			$this->db->connect();
 *			$num_config = $this->db->select(config::TABLE,'COUNT(config_name)',false,__LINE__,__FILE__)->fetchColumn();
 *		}
 *		catch(Exception $e) {
 *			echo "Connection to DB failed (".$e->getMessage().")!\n";
 *		}
