/**
 * Class to create select database independent SELECT queries.
 *
 * Note that this class creates queries that are syntactically independent
 * of database. Semantically the queries still differ and so the same
 * query may produce different results on different databases. Such
 * differences are noted throughout the documentation of this class.
 *
 * This class implements SQL92. If your database differs from the SQL92
 * implementation extend this class and reimplement the methods that produce
 * different results. Some methods implemented in ezcQuery are not defined by SQL92.
 * These methods are marked and ezcQuery will return MySQL syntax for these cases.
 *
 * The examples show the SQL generated by this class.
 * Database specific implementations may produce different results.
 *
 * Example:
 * <code>
 * $q = ezcDbInstance::get()->createSelectQuery();
 * $q->select( '*' )->from( 'Greetings' )
 *     ->where( $q->expr->gt( 'age', 10 ),
 *              $q->expr->eq( 'greeting', $q->bindValue( 'Hello world' ) ) )
 *     ->orderBy( 'owner' )
 *     ->limit( 10 );
 * $stmt = $q->prepare(); // $stmt is a normal PDOStatement
 * $stmt->execute();
 * </code>
 *
 * Database independence:
 * TRUE/FALSE, MySQL accepts 0 and 1 as boolean values. PostgreSQL does not, but accepts TRUE/FALSE.
 * @todo introduction needs examples with clone(), reusing a query and advanced binding.
 * @package Database
