-- DB2 Library supporting a very limited subset of operations.
--
-- Summary
-- * The library currently provides functionality to: (1) Query the server for
-- basic settings using the code>getServerInfo function of the helper
-- class. (2) Authenticate to a DB2 server using a plain-text username and
-- password.
--
-- The library contains the following classes:
-- * DRDA
-- ** Implements the Distributed Relational Database Architecture class .
-- * DRDAParameter
-- ** Implements a number of functions to handle DRDA parameters.
-- * DDM
-- ** Implements the DDM portion of the DRDA structure
-- * Command
-- ** Provides functions for easy creation of the most common DRDAs.
-- ** Implemented as a static class that returns an instance of the DRDA.
-- * Helper
-- ** A helper class that provides easy access to the rest of the library
-- * DB2Socket
-- ** A smallish socket wrapper that provides fundamental buffering
-- * StringUtil
-- ** Provides EBCDIC/ASCII conversion functions
--
-- The following sample code illustrates how scripts can use the Helper class
-- to interface with the library:
--
--
-- db2helper = db2.Helper:new()
-- status, err = db2helper:connect(host, port)
-- status, res = db2helper:getServerInfo()
-- status, err = db2helper:close()
--
--
-- The implementation is based on packet dumps and the excellent decoding
-- provided by Wireshark.
--
-- There is some documentation at
-- http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dzichelp/v2r2/topic/com.ibm.db29.doc.drda/db2z_drda.htm.
