+ * A QueryPlanLogger for DB2.
+ * 
+ * To use query plan capturing, you have to install the explain tables with
+ * <code>SYSPROC.SYSINSTALLOBJECTS( 'EXPLAIN', 'C' , '', CURRENT SCHEMA )</code>.
+ * To do this in a repeatable script, you may use this statement:
+ * 
+ * <pre>
+ * BEGIN    
+ * IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM SYSCAT.TABLES WHERE TABSCHEMA = CURRENT SCHEMA AND TABNAME = 'EXPLAIN_STREAM') THEN 
+ *    call SYSPROC.SYSINSTALLOBJECTS( 'EXPLAIN', 'C' , '', CURRENT SCHEMA );
+ * END IF;                                                        
+ * END
+ * </pre>
