	/**
	 * @class Query Provides a framework to construct complex queries in a safer environment.
	 * 
	 * The usage of this class depends on the type of query you are executing, but the basic idea is to
	 * construct a query out of pluggable classes.
	 * 
	 * Once constructed SQL can be generated using the toString method, this should happen automatically 
	 * if you pass the Query object to get_data or similar.
	 * 
	 * To construct a query, create a new Query() object and begin populating it with the various classes 
	 * that define the various aspects of the query.
	 * 
	 * Notes:
	 * 	- You do not have to specify things in any particular order, provided you specify all required 
	 * 	  components.
	 *  - With database tables you do not have to specify your db prefix, this will be added automatically.
	 *  - When constructing your query keep an eye on the error log - any problems will get spit out here. 
	 * 	  Note also that __toString won't let you throw Exceptions (!!!) so these are caught and echoed to 
	 *    the log instead.
	 * 
	 * Here is an example of a select query which requests some data out of the entities table with an 
	 * order and limit that uses a subset where and some normal where queries:
	 * 
	 * <blockquote>
	 * 		// Construct the query
	 * 		$query = new Query();
	 * 		
	 * 		// Say which table we're interested in
	 * 		$query->addTable(new TableQueryComponent("entities"));
	 * 
	 * 		// What fields are we interested in
	 * 		$query->addSelectField(new SelectFieldQueryComponent("entities","*"));
	 * 
	 * 		// Add access control (Default access control uses default fields on entities table.
	 * 		// Note that it will error without something specified here!
	 * 		$query->setAccessControl(new AccessControlQueryComponent());
	 * 
	 * 		// Set a limit and offset, may be omitted.
	 * 		$query->setLimitAndOffset(new LimitOffsetQueryComponent(10,0));
	 * 
	 * 		// Specify the order, may be omitted
	 * 		$query->setOrder(new OrderQueryComponent("entities", "subtype", "desc"));
	 * 
	 * 		// Construct a where query
	 * 		// 
	 * 		// This demonstrates a WhereSet which lets you have sub wheres, a
	 * 		// WhereStatic which lets you compare a table field against a value and a
	 * 		// Where which lets you compare a table/field with another table/field.
	 * 		$query->addWhere(
	 * 			new WhereSetQueryComponent(
	 * 				array(
	 * 					new WhereStaticQueryComponent("entities", "subtype","=", 1),
	 * 					new WhereQueryComponent("entities","subtype","=", "entities", "subtype")
	 * 				)
	 * 			)
	 * 		);
	 * 
	 * 		get_data($query);
