I chose to create a temporary set of components for that: 'gb.db2' and 
'gb.db2.sqlite3' (for the moment).

As I told in the mail, these components will replace 'gb.db' and its 
drivers when finished.

With this new component, you still have to write some C/C++ in the 
driver, but just the minimal part. The rest can be written in Gambas.

Moreover, as the 'gb.db2' component is almost entirely written in 
Gambas, it will be easier to add new features (at least it's the goal!).
