  <div class="description"><p>
The <a href="Database.html">Database</a> class encapsulates a single
connection to a <a href="../SQLite3.html">SQLite3</a> database. Its usage
is very straightforward:
</p>
<pre>
  require 'sqlite3'

  db = SQLite3::Database.new( &quot;data.db&quot; )

  db.execute( &quot;select * from table&quot; ) do |row|
    p row
  end

  db.close
</pre>
<p>
It wraps the lower-level methods provides by the selected driver, and
includes the <a href="Pragmas.html">Pragmas</a> module for access to
various pragma convenience methods.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="Database.html">Database</a> class provides type translation
services as well, by which the <a href="../SQLite3.html">SQLite3</a> data
types (which are all represented as strings) may be converted into their
corresponding types (as defined in the schemas for their tables). This
translation only occurs when querying data from the
database&#8212;insertions and updates are all still typeless.
</p>
<p>
Furthermore, the <a href="Database.html">Database</a> class has been
designed to work well with the ArrayFields module from Ara Howard. If you
require the ArrayFields module before performing a <a
href="Database.html#M000108">query</a>, and if you have not enabled results
as hashes, then the results will all be indexible by field name.
</p>

  <div class="description">
  <p>
Creates a <a href="Database.html#M000095">new</a> aggregate function for
use in SQL statements. Aggregate functions are functions that apply over
every row in the result set, instead of over just a single row. (A very
common aggregate function is the &quot;count&quot; function, for
determining the number of rows that match a <a
href="Database.html#M000108">query</a>.)
</p>
<p>
The <a href="Database.html#M000095">new</a> function will be added as
<tt>name</tt>, with the given <tt>arity</tt>. (For variable arity
functions, use -1 for the arity.)
</p>
<p>
The <tt>step</tt> parameter must be a proc object that accepts as its first
parameter a <a href="Database/FunctionProxy.html">FunctionProxy</a>
instance (representing the function invocation), with any subsequent
parameters (up to the function&#8216;s arity). The <tt>step</tt> callback
will be invoked once for each row of the result set.
</p>
<p>
The <tt>finalize</tt> parameter must be a <tt>proc</tt> object that accepts
only a single parameter, the <a
href="Database/FunctionProxy.html">FunctionProxy</a> instance representing
the current function invocation. It should invoke <a
href="Database/FunctionProxy.html#M000126">FunctionProxy#set_result</a> to
store the result of the function.
</p>
<p>
Example:
</p>
<pre>
  db.create_aggregate( &quot;lengths&quot;, 1 ) do
    step do |func, value|
      func[ :total ] ||= 0
      func[ :total ] += ( value ? value.length : 0 )
    end

    finalize do |func|
      func.set_result( func[ :total ] || 0 )
    end
  end

  puts db.get_first_value( &quot;select lengths(name) from table&quot; )
</pre>
<p>
See also <a href="Database.html#M000119">create_aggregate_handler</a> for a
more object-oriented approach to aggregate functions.

  <p>
This is another approach to creating an aggregate function (see <a
href="Database.html#M000118">create_aggregate</a>). Instead of explicitly
specifying the name, callbacks, arity, and type, you specify a factory
object (the &quot;handler&quot;) that knows how to obtain all of that
information. The handler should respond to the following messages:
</p>
<table>
<tr><td valign="top"><tt>arity</tt>:</td><td>corresponds to the <tt>arity</tt> parameter of <a
href="Database.html#M000118">create_aggregate</a>. This message is
optional, and if the handler does not respond to it, the function will have
an arity of -1.

</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top"><tt>name</tt>:</td><td>this is the name of the function. The handler <em>must</em> implement this
message.

</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top"><tt><a href="Database.html#M000095">new</a></tt>:</td><td>this must be implemented by the handler. It should return a <a
href="Database.html#M000095">new</a> instance of the object that will
handle a specific invocation of the function.

</td></tr>
</table>
<p>
The handler instance (the object returned by the <tt><a
href="Database.html#M000095">new</a></tt> message, described above), must
respond to the following messages:
</p>
<table>
<tr><td valign="top"><tt>step</tt>:</td><td>this is the method that will be called for each step of the aggregate
function&#8216;s evaluation. It should implement the same signature as the
<tt>step</tt> callback for <a
href="Database.html#M000118">create_aggregate</a>.

</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top"><tt>finalize</tt>:</td><td>this is the method that will be called to finalize the aggregate
function&#8216;s evaluation. It should implement the same signature as the
<tt>finalize</tt> callback for <a
href="Database.html#M000118">create_aggregate</a>.

</td></tr>
</table>
<p>
Example:
</p>
<pre>
  class LengthsAggregateHandler
    def self.arity; 1; end

    def initialize
      @total = 0
    end

    def step( ctx, name )
      @total += ( name ? name.length : 0 )
    end

    def finalize( ctx )
      ctx.set_result( @total )
    end
  end

  puts db.get_first_value( &quot;select lengths(name) from A&quot; )

  <p>
Begins a <a href="Database.html#M000095">new</a> <a
href="Database.html#M000120">transaction</a>. Note that nested transactions
are not allowed by SQLite, so attempting to nest a <a
href="Database.html#M000120">transaction</a> will result in a runtime
exception.
</p>
<p>
The <tt>mode</tt> parameter may be either <tt>:deferred</tt> (the default),
<tt>:immediate</tt>, or <tt>:exclusive</tt>.
</p>
<p>
If a block is given, the database instance is yielded to it, and the <a
href="Database.html#M000120">transaction</a> is committed when the block
terminates. If the block raises an exception, a <a
href="Database.html#M000122">rollback</a> will be performed instead. Note
that if a block is given, <a href="Database.html#M000121">commit</a> and <a
href="Database.html#M000122">rollback</a> should never be called explicitly
or you&#8216;ll get an error when the block terminates.
</p>
<p>
If a block is not given, it is the caller&#8216;s responsibility to end the
<a href="Database.html#M000120">transaction</a> explicitly, either by
calling <a href="Database.html#M000121">commit</a>, or by calling <a

Return the type <a href="Database.html#M000099">translator</a> employed by
