Best way to create a simple local database [SOLVED]

Charmaman

Hello guys,

I am rather new to Qt-Programming. I set up a little program for categorizing images. So far I am saving my informations within a QDomDocument and save/load it in a xml-file. So far everything works fine, but I need some more functions which I do not like to code by hand. I would like to have search/filter-functions and so on (e.g. like in SQL), but I do not want to install a local SQL-database, because I want it to be easy to download and use for other users.

Is there any local-in-house-solution in Qt that I could use?
Something that creates a database itself or at least within cpu-memory with the functionality to save and load to/from file?

Thanks for tips!

bq. SQLite is a software library that implements a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, transactional SQL database engine. SQLite is the most widely deployed SQL database engine in the world. The source code for SQLite is in the public domain.

Wow, thanks for the fast reply!

That's exactly what I was looking for.

Again, Thanks a lot!

to facilitate the creation and use of the bank sqlite, the use "SQlite Manager ":www.sqlitemanager.org , or the Firefox extension "SQlite Firefox Add-on ":https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-BR/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/ .

Yes, I would "vote" for SQLite as well! ;-)

Thanks guys, I already managed to create a DB with Qt. I am using the sql-functionality of Qt itself. I did not download SQLite seperately.
Works fine and I could already create tables in the database.
