NAME

       DB::prepare - Prepare a database query

SYNOPSIS

       DBStatement<a> prepare( DBHandle<a>  con, String query )

ARGUMENTS

       con The database connection

       query  The query template. This may contain replacement characters at some places (consult the manual for
       the specific database to find out what replacement syntax should be used) which  will  be  replaced  with
       variables in the DB.execPrepared (3kaya) function.

DESCRIPTION

       Prepare  a  database  query.  Prepared  queries can then be executed later, using a parameter-replacement
       method that generally avoids SQL injection attacks.
