This class can access MySQL tables keeping deleted records archived.

It can execute common queries to manipulate records of a MySQL table but record deletion is emulated by setting a field with the data of the soft-deletion of the record.

The class can execute SQL INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and SELECT queries ignoring rows there are soft-deleted.

Permanently deleting database records may be a dangerous operation to execute from an application.

If a Web site that performs record deletion has its user accounts compromised, the attacker may cause irreversible damage by executing operations that delete important information records.

A more secure alternative is to implement what is called soft-deletion of records.

In practice this means that records are not really deleted. Instead they have a field that is used to mark deleted records.

This way, if there is a security breach and records are marked as deleted, the records that were affected may be undeleted.

This class implements access to MySQL database table records with soft-deletion support.

The delete operation just sets the field to mark the records as deleted. The table access operations ignore records marked as deleted.
