Differences between Unidac and LiteDac

Post by Stamp » Wed 15 Aug 2012 20:48

Is LiteDac the same as the SQLite provider in Unidac? Is there anything missing in Unidac that LiteDac offers?

I'm about to renew my license, just wondering if theres anything I need to consider.

Hello,

LiteDAC and SQLite provider in UniDAC are based on the same basic classes, however, since UniDAC is a unified product for work with different DBs, it doesn't include several server-specific features. There is a design-time component included in LiteDAC for simplification of creating user-defined functions. The TLiteLoader, TLiteDump, TLiteMetaData components allow to do more advanced settings for using entire SQLite functionality and specificity. Moreover, in the future, when adding features specific for SQLite only, they will be also added to LiteDAC.

Ah ok. Hopefully there won't be too many SQLite specific features ;)
