/**
 * TDbExpression represents a DB expression that does not need escaping.
 * TDbExpression is mainly used in {@link CActiveRecord} as attribute values.
 * When inserting or updating a {@link CActiveRecord}, attribute values of
 * type TDbExpression will be directly put into the corresponding SQL statement
 * without escaping. A typical usage is that an attribute is set with 'NOW()'
 * expression so that saving the record would fill the corresponding column
 * with the current DB server timestamp.
