Looking at using Exposed. After reading the docs I am not entirely sure where I should be calling Database.connect. I think it should be called one time when the application starts. But after I call it, do I need to reference it to interact with the db. All the examples I've seen don't use the Database object directly. How do the table objects get a handle to the current Database?

Ok, looks like a ThreadLocalTransactionManager manager is used.

I think you should usually only need to use the db object directly if you wish to connect to multiple databases from the same app
