/**
 * == Vert.x Common SQL interface
 *
 * The common SQL interface is used to interact with Vert.x SQL services.
 *
 * You obtain a connection to the database via the service interface for the specific SQL service that
 * you are using (e.g. JDBC/MySQL/PostgreSQL).
 *
 * To use this project, add the following dependency to the _dependencies_ section of your build descriptor:
 *
 * * Maven (in your `pom.xml`):
 *
 * [source,xml,subs="+attributes"]
 * ----
 * 
 *   ${maven.groupId}
 *   ${maven.artifactId}
 *   ${maven.version}
 * 
 * ----
 *
 * * Gradle (in your `build.gradle` file):
 *
 * [source,groovy,subs="+attributes"]
 * ----
 * compile '${maven.groupId}:${maven.artifactId}:${maven.version}'
 * ----
 *
 * == Simple SQL Operations
 *
 * There are times when you will want to run a single SQL operation, e.g.: a single select of a row, or a update to a
 * set of rows which do not require to be part of a transaction or have dependencies on the previous or next operation.
 *
 * For these cases, clients provide a boilerplate-less API {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLOperations}. This interface will
 * perform the following steps for you:
 *
 * 1. acquire a connection from the connection pool
 * 2. perform your action
 * 3. close and return the connection to the connection pool
 *
 * An example where users get loaded from the `USERS` table could be:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example16}
 * ----
 *
 * You can perform the following operations as a simple one "shot" method call:
 *
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#query(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#queryWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#querySingle(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#querySingleWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#update(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#updateWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#call(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLClient#callWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 *
 * For further details on these API please refer to the {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLOperations} interface.
 *
 *
 * == The SQL Connection
 *
 * A connection to the database is represented by {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection}.
 *
 * === Auto-commit
 *
 * When you obtain a connection auto commit is set to `true`. This means that each operation you perform will effectively
 * execute in its own transaction.
 *
 * If you wish to perform multiple operations in a single transaction you should set auto commit to false with
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#setAutoCommit(boolean, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * When the operation is complete, the handler will be called:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example1}
 * ----
 *
 * === Executing queries
 *
 * To execute a query use {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#query(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 *
 * The query string is raw SQL that is passed through without changes to the actual database.
 *
 * The handler will be called with the results, represented by {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet} when the query has
 * been run.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example2}
 * ----
 *
 * The {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet} instance represents the results of a query.
 *
 * The list of column names are available with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet#getColumnNames()}, and the actual results
 * available with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet#getResults()}
 *
 * The results are a list of {@link io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray} instances, one for each row of the results.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example3}
 * ----
 *
 * You can also retrieve the rows as a list of Json object instances with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet#getRows()} -
 * this can give you a somewhat simpler API to work with, but please be aware that SQL results can contain duplicate
 * column names - if that's the case you should use {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.ResultSet#getResults()} instead.
 *
 * Here's an example of iterating through the results as Json object instances:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example3__1}
 * ----
 *
 * === Prepared statement queries
 *
 * To execute a prepared statement query you can use
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#queryWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * This takes the query, containing the parameter place holders, and a {@link io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray} or parameter
 * values.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example3_1}
 * ----
 *
 * === Executing INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE
 *
 * To execute an operation which updates the database use {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#update(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * The update string is raw SQL that is passed through without changes to the actual database.
 *
 * The handler will be called with the results, represented by {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.UpdateResult} when the update has
 * been run.
 *
 * The update result holds the number of rows updated with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.UpdateResult#getUpdated()}, and
 * if the update generated keys, they are available with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.UpdateResult#getKeys()}.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example4}
 * ----
 *
 * === Prepared statement updates
 *
 * To execute a prepared statement update you can use
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#updateWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * This takes the update, containing the parameter place holders, and a {@link io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray} or parameter
 * values.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example5}
 * ----
 *
 * === Callable statements
 *
 * To execute a callable statement (either SQL functions or SQL procedures) you can use
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#callWithParams(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * This takes the callable statement using the standard JDBC format `{ call func_proc_name() }`, optionally including
 * parameter place holders e.g.: `{ call func_proc_name(?, ?) }`, a {@link io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray} containing the
 * parameter values and finally a {@link io.vertx.core.json.JsonArray} containing the
 * output types e.g.: `[null, 'VARCHAR']`.
 *
 * Note that the index of the output type is as important as the params array. If the return value is the second
 * argument then the output array must contain a null value as the first element.
 *
 * A SQL function returns some output using the `return` keyword, and in this case one can call it like this:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example8}
 * ----
 *
 * When working with Procedures you and still return values from your procedures via its arguments, in the case you do
 * not return anything the usage is as follows:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example9}
 * ----
 *
 * However you can also return values like this:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example10}
 * ----
 *
 * Note that the index of the arguments matches the index of the `?` and that the output parameters expect to be a
 * String describing the type you want to receive.
 *
 * To avoid ambiguation the implementations are expected to follow the following rules:
 *
 * * When a place holder in the `IN` array is `NOT NULL` it will be taken
 * * When the `IN` value is NULL a check is performed on the OUT
 *   * When the `OUT` value is not null it will be registered as a output parameter
 *   * When the `OUT` is also null it is expected that the IN value is the `NULL` value.
 *
 * The registered `OUT` parameters will be available as an array in the result set under the output property.
 *
 * === Batch operations
 *
 * The SQL common interface also defines how to execute batch operations. There are 3 types of batch operations:
 *
 * * Batched statements {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#batch(java.util.List, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * Batched prepared statements {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#batchWithParams(java.lang.String, java.util.List, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 * * Batched callable statements {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#batchCallableWithParams(java.lang.String, java.util.List, java.util.List, io.vertx.core.Handler)}
 *
 * A batches statement will exeucte a list of sql statements as for example:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example12}
 * ----
 *
 * While a prepared or callable statement batch will reuse the sql statement and take an list of arguments as for example:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example11}
 * ----

 * === Executing other operations
 *
 * To execute any other database operation, e.g. a `CREATE TABLE` you can use
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#execute(java.lang.String, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * The string is passed through without changes to the actual database. The handler is called when the operation
 * is complete
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example6}
 * ----
 *
 * === Multiple ResultSet responses
 *
 * In some cases your query might return more than one result set, in this case and to preserve the compatibility when
 * the returned result set object is converted to pure json, the next result sets are chained to the current result set
 * under the property `next`. A simple walk of all result sets can be achieved like this:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example13}
 * ----
 *
 * === Streaming
 *
 * When dealing with large data sets, it is not advised to use API just described but to stream data since it avoids
 * inflating the whole response into memory and JSON and data is just processed on a row by row basis, for example:
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example14}
 * ----
 *
 * You still have full control on when the stream is pauses, resumed and ended. For cases where your query returns
 * multiple result sets you should use the result set ended event to fetch the next one if available. If there is more
 * data the stream handler will receive the new data, otherwise the end handler is invoked.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example15}
 * ----
 *
 * === Using transactions
 *
 * To use transactions first set auto-commit to false with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#setAutoCommit(boolean, io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * You then do your transactional operations and when you want to commit or rollback use
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#commit(io.vertx.core.Handler)} or
 * {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#rollback(io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
 * Once the commit/rollback is complete the handler will be called and the next transaction will be automatically started.
 *
 * [source,$lang]
 * ----
 * {@link examples.SQLExamples#example7}
 * ----
 *
 * === Closing connections
 *
 * When you've done with the connection you should return it to the pool with {@link io.vertx.ext.sql.SQLConnection#close(io.vertx.core.Handler)}.
 *
