// To open a connection to a server use the static method Connect().    //
// The db argument of Connect() is of the form:                         //
//    <dbms>://<host>[:<port>][/<database>], e.g.                       //
// mysql://pcroot.cern.ch:3456/test, oracle://srv1.cern.ch/main, ...    //
// Depending on the <dbms> specified an appropriate plugin library      //
// will be loaded which will provide the real interface.                //
