-- DRDA 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</code> function of the helper
-- class. (2) Authenticate to a DB2 server using a plain-text username and
-- password.
--
-- The library contains the following classes:
-- * <code>DRDA</code>
-- ** Implements the Distributed Relational Database Architecture class .
-- * <code>DRDAParameter</code>
-- ** Implements a number of functions to handle DRDA parameters.
-- * <code>DDM</code>
-- ** Implements the DDM portion of the DRDA structure
-- * <code>Command</code>
-- ** Provides functions for easy creation of the most common DRDAs.
-- ** Implemented as a static class that returns an instance of the DRDA.
-- * <code>Helper</code>
-- ** A helper class that provides easy access to the rest of the library
-- * <code>DB2Socket</code>
-- ** A smallish socket wrapper that provides fundamental buffering
-- * <code>StringUtil</code>
-- ** Provides EBCDIC/ASCII conversion functions
-- * <code>Comm</code>
-- ** Provides fundamental communication support (send/receive DRDAPacket)
-- * <code>DRDAPacket</code>
-- ** A class holding one or more DRDA's and provides some basic access methods
--
-- The following sample code illustrates how scripts can use the Helper class
-- to interface with the library:
--
-- <code>
-- db2helper = drda.Helper:new()
-- status, err = db2helper:connect(host, port)
-- status, res = db2helper:getServerInfo()
-- status, err = db2helper:close()
-- </code>
--
-- 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.

-- Version 0.2
-- Created 05/08/2010 - v0.1 - created by Patrik Karlsson <patrik@cqure.net>
-- Revised 07/27/2010 - v0.2 - Added the comm class and made a few improvements
--                             to sending and receiving packets. Changed the
--                             helper login method to support:
--                             x IBM DB2
--                             x Apache Derby
