Right, I will add fields.

Btw, let's discuss the next idea.

Right now module Valentina have mixture of constants from different types
and enums.

It looks that I can improve this in the next way,
And get syntax 100% the same as Java have

* I can create in plugin MANY modules with e.g. name

    ELockType

And constants 

    kNoLock, kRadOnly, kReadWrite


* then we can write such syntax:

    db.SqlSelect( 
        query, 
        ECursorType.kServerSide
        ELockType.kReadOnly,
        Edirection.ForwardOnly )


Compare to current attempt

    db.SqlSelect( 
        query, 
        Valentina.kServerSide
        Valentina.kReadOnly,
        Valentina.ForwardOnly )

It looks to me that the first way is more clean.
And again, Java work with enums in this way.
