+      # This method fetches a single rows worth of data from the ResultSet
+      # object. If the set contains more rows then an array containing the
+      # row data will be retrieved. If the ResultSet is exhausted (i.e. all
+      # rows have been fetched) then nil is returned. Translation of the row
+      # data into an appropriate Ruby type is performed on the row data that
+      # is extracted.

+      # This method provides an iterator for the (remaining) rows contained in
+      # a ResultSet object.
+      #
+      # ==== Parameters
+      # block::  A block that takes a single parameter. This will be called for
+      #          and passed each remaining row (as per the fetch method) from
+      #          the ResultSet.

+      # This method releases the database resources associated with a ResultSet
+      # object and should be explicitly called when a ResultSet object is of
+      # no further use. The method is implicitly called if the rows available
+      # from a ResultSet are exhausted but calling this method at that time
+      # will not cause an error.
+      #
+      # ==== Exceptions
+      # FireRubyError::  Generated whenever a problem occurs closing the result
+      #                  set object.

+      # ==== Parameters

+      # ==== Parameters
+      # step::  The step interval to be applied to the generator to obtain the
+      #         next value.

+      #
+      # ==== Exceptions
