Description:
------------
Please could we have more detailed documentation on using DB_FETCHMODE_OBJECT with a classname to populate?

I have just spent two days trying to work out how to do object concurrency control against a database, only to discover that a heap of my code duplicates this existing, but little-documented functionality.

The ability to use DB as a simple object factory like this is great - please may I make a feature request: the ability to feed objects derived from DB_Row back into the autoExecute mechanism so that they can simply be persisted back to the database?

The documentation for DB_FETCHMODE_OBJECT is clear enough IMHO. Now for the feature request, let's turn this bug to a package bug.
