/** SqlBuilder can be used to build a Statement from its structural description, 
 * much in the same way a SqlParser can be used to build a Statement from a SQL string.
 *
 * You may, for instance, pass the SqlBuilder directly to 
 * Connection::statement_execute_select_builder() or 
 * Connection::statement_execute_non_select_builder(). Or you may instead call 
 * get_statement() and use the resulting SqlStatement.
 *
 * During the building process, some pieces of the statement are constructed 
 * and assembled into the final statement. Each of these pieces can be reused 
 * anytime in the same SqlBuilder object, and each is identified using a 
 * single ID. That ID is dynamically allocated by the object.
 * 
 * This simple example builds the equivalent of this SQL query:
 * "SELECT employees.name_first, employees.name_last FROM employees WHERE employees.employee_id = 123".
 *
 * @code
 * Glib::RefPtr<Gnome::Gda::SqlBuilder> builder =
 *   Gnome::Gda::SqlBuilder::create(Gnome::Gda::SQL_STATEMENT_SELECT);
 * builder->select_add_field("name_fist", "employees");
 * builder->select_add_field("name_last", "employees");
 * builder->select_add_target("employees");
 * builder->set_where(
 *   builder->add_cond(Gnome::Gda::SQL_OPERATOR_TYPE_EQ,
 *     builder->add_field_id("employee_id", "employees"),
 *     builder->add_expr(123)));
 * @endcode
 *
 * Note that, in this simple example, it's not necessary to specify the extra 
 * "employees" table name parameter to select_add_field() and add_field_id(),
 * though it's often a good idea to avoid ambiguity in larger queries.
