DB (JavaLite - ActiveJDBC Root 1.4.13-SNAPSHOT API)

java.lang.Object
- org.javalite.activejdbc.DB

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable
```
public class DB
extends Object
implements Closeable
```
This class provides a number of convenience methods for opening/closing database connections, running various types of queries, and executing SQL statements. This class differs from Base such that in this class you can provide a logical name for a current connection. Use this class when you have more than one database in the system.
