+
+	# The ObjectStore represents the database in a Lafcadio application.
+	#
+	# = Configuring the ObjectStore
+	# The ObjectStore depends on a few values being set correctly in the
+	# LafcadioConfig file:
+	# [dbuser]     The database username.
+	# [dbpassword] The database password.
+	# [dbname]     The database name.
+	# [dbhost]     The database host.
+	#
+	# = Instantiating ObjectStore
+	# The ObjectStore is a ContextualService, meaning you can't get an instance by
+	# calling ObjectStore.new. Instead, you should call
+	# ObjectStore.get_object_store. (Using a ContextualService makes it easier to
+	# make out the ObjectStore for unit tests: See ContextualService for more.)
+	#
+	# = Dynamic method calls
+	# ObjectStore uses reflection to provide a lot of convenience methods for
+	# querying domain objects in a number of ways.
+	# [ObjectStore#get< domain class > (pk_id)]
+	#   Retrieves one domain object by pk_id. For example,
+	#     ObjectStore#getUser( 100 )
+	#   will return User 100.
+	# [ObjectStore#get< domain class >s (searchTerm, fieldName = nil)]
+	#   Returns a collection of all instances of that domain class matching that
+	#   search term. For example,
+	#     ObjectStore#getProducts( aProductCategory )
+	#   queries MySQL for all products that belong to that product category. You
+	#   can omit +fieldName+ if +searchTerm+ is a non-nil domain object, and the
+	#   field connecting the first domain class to the second is named after the
+	#   domain class. (For example, the above line assumes that Product has a
+	#   field named "productCategory".) Otherwise, it's best to include
+	#   +fieldName+:
+	#     ObjectStore#getUsers( "Jones", "lastName" )
+	#
+	# = Querying
+	# ObjectStore can also be used to generate complex, ad-hoc queries which
+	# emulate much of the functionality you'd get from writing the SQL yourself.
+	# Furthermore, these queries can be run against in-memory data stores, which
+	# is particularly useful for tests.
+	#   date = Date.new( 2003, 1, 1 )
+	#   ObjectStore#getInvoices { |invoice|
+	#     Query.And( invoice.date.gte( date ), invoice.rate.equals( 10 ),
+	#                invoice.hours.equals( 10 ) )
+	#   }
+	# is the same as
+	#   select * from invoices
+	#   where (date >= '2003-01-01' and rate = 10 and hours = 10)
+	# See lafcadio/query.rb for more.
+	#
+	# = SQL Logging
+	# Lafcadio uses log4r to log all of its SQL statements. The simplest way to
+	# turn on logging is to set the following values in the LafcadioConfig file:
+	# [logSql]     Should be set to "y" to turn on logging.
+	# [logdir]     The directory where log files should be written. Required if
+	#              +logSql+ is "y"
+	# [sqlLogFile] The name of the file (not including its directory) where SQL
+	#              should be logged. Default is "sql".
+	#
+	# = Triggers
+	# Domain classes can be set to fire triggers either before or after commits.
+	# Since these triggers are executed in Ruby, they're easy to test. See
+	# DomainObject#pre_commit_trigger and DomainObject#post_commit_trigger for more.
