Hello everybody,
Today I'm releasing QuickLite 1.5.
What is QuickLite?
It's a powerful, yet simple-to-use Cocoa wrapper for SQLite 3, the embeddable SQL database engine.
QuickLite already includes SQLite, so there's no need to download and to configure. It provides the developer with a SQL database without running a separate RDBMS process. QuickLite is not a client library used to connect to a big database server. QuickLite is the server, reading and writing directly to and from the database files on disk.
New features in QuickLite 1.5:
- Updated with SQLite 3.0.7
- Data integrity check provided by SQLite
- Datatype support includes QLString, QLNumber, QLBoolean, QLDateTime, and QLContainer
- Better data caching: CacheAllData, CacheOnDemand, or DoNotCacheData
- QuickEdit: add, edit, and remove rows without a single SQL statement, the OOP-way
- Save and revert supported, database-wide and on a cursor-by-cursor basis
- Distributed notifications, Fast User Switching-aware, sent when a commit action takes place
- Debugging facilities to observe all SQL statements executed, as well as tracing QuickLite methods
- Lots of optimizations
Other Features:
- Updated with SQLite 3.0.7
- Objected-oriented
- Easy to use
- Just 3 classes to deal with: QuickLiteDatabase, QuickLiteCursor, and QuickLiteRow
- Data file compaction
- Includes introspection methods to access table names, column names, indexes, etc.
- Includes utility methods to create and drop tables, add and remove columns, insert data, and more!
- Access to SQLite’s last error ID and associated error string
- BLOB support
- Several examples are included, including SQLiteManagerX, a SQLite 3 database browser
Since the QuickLite 1.5 Beta Program began, lots of improvements and bug fixes have been made. To know more, please read the Release Notes.
