# The library `villa' should be included in application codes.
# An instance of the class `Villa' is used as a database handle.
# `Villa' performs Mix-in of `Enumerable'.
# Each method of `Villa' throws an exception of `Villa::EANY' or its sub classes when an error
# occurs: `Villa::ENOERR', `Villa::EFATAL', `Villa::EMODE', `Villa::EBROKEN', `Villa::EKEEP',
# `Villa::ENOITEM', `Villa::EALLOC', `Villa::EMAP', `Villa::EOPEN', `Villa::ECLOSE',

  # villa = Villa::new(name, omode, cmode)
  # Constructor: Get a database handle.
  # `name' specifies the name of a database file.
  # `omode' specifies the connection mode: `Villa::OWRITER' as a writer, `Villa::OREADER' as a
  # reader.  If the mode is `Villa::OWRITER', the following may be added by bitwise or:
  # `Villa::OCREAT', which means it creates a new database if not exist, `Villa::OTRUNC', which
  # means it creates a new database regardless if one exists, `Villa::OZCOMP', which means
  # leaves in the database are compressed with ZLIB, `Villa::OYCOMP', which means leaves in the
  # database are compressed with LZO, `Villa::OXCOMP', which means leaves in the database are
  # compressed with BZIP2.  Both of `Villa::OREADER' and `Villa::OWRITER' can be added to by
  # bitwise or: `Villa::ONOLCK', which means it opens a database file without file locking, or
  # `Villa::OLCKNB', which means locking is performed without blocking.  If it is omitted,
  # `Villa::OREADER' is specified.
  # `cmode' specifies the comparing function: `Villa::CMPLEX' comparing keys in lexical order,
  # `Villa::CMPDEC' comparing keys as decimal strings, `Villa::CMPOBJ' comparing keys as
  # serialized objects implementing the method `<=>'.  The comparing function should be kept
  # same in the life of a database.  If `Villa::CMPOBJ' is used, such methods as `put', `out',
  # `get' and so on can treat not only instances of `String' but also any serializable and
  # comparable object.
  # If so, objects being stored are serialized and objects being retrieved are deserialized.
  # The return value is the database handle.
  # An exception of `Villa::EANY' or its sub classes is thrown if an error occurs.
  # If a block parameter is given, this method works as an iterator.  A database handle is
  # opened and passed via the first argument of the block.  The database handle is surely
  # closed when the block is over.
  # While connecting as a writer, an exclusive lock is invoked to the database file.
  # While connecting as a reader, a shared lock is invoked to the database file.  The thread
  # blocks until the lock is achieved.  `Villa::OZCOMP', `Villa::OYCOMP', and `Villa::OXCOMP'
  # are available only if QDBM was built each with ZLIB, LZO, and BZIP2 enabled.  If
  # `Villa::ONOLCK' is used, the application is responsible for exclusion control.
