Developers, take note: databases aren't just for the IS
group any more. You can build database-backed
applications for the desktop, Web, embedded systems, or
operating systems without linking to heavy-duty client-
server databases such as Oracle and MySQL. This book
shows how you to use SQLite, a small and lightweight
database that you can build right into your application
during development. Applications that handle data have an
enormous advantage today, and with SQLite, you'll
discover how to develop a database-backed application
that remains manageable in size and complexity. This book
guides you every step of the way. You'll get a crash
course in data modeling, become familiar with SQLite's
dialect of the SQL database language, and learn how you
to work with SQLite using either a scripting language or
a C-based language, such as C# or Objective C. Now, even
relatively small and nimble applications can be a part of
the data revolution. Using SQLite shows you how.
