"As variables"? What does that mean? Can you give an example of precisely what a valid DB.DB call would look like in the real code, rather than showing an example of something that *doesn't* do what you want it to?
I thought connect strings looked like "host=localhost;port=5432" and so on... equal signs and semicolons or something.
