/**
 * \ingroup stats
 *
 * \brief A C++ interface towards an SQLITE database
 *
 * The class is able to execute commands, and retrieve results, from an SQLITE
 * database. The methods with the "Spin" prefix, in case of concurrent access
 * to the database, will spin until the operation is applied. The methods with
 * the "Wait" prefix will wait on a mutex.
 *
 * If you run multiple simulations that write on the same database, it is
 * recommended to use the "Wait" prefixed methods. Otherwise, if the access to
 * the database is unique, using "Spin" methods will speed up database access.
 *
 * The database is opened in the constructor, and closed in the deconstructor.
