Apple does this with some other technologies as well. CoreData "is" SQLite.
- randomdata 3y agoCoreData is an object graph and persistence framework. It is more like an ORM toolkit than like a database engine. Indeed, SQLite is one of the possible 'backends', but it is not limited to SQLite. It also supports XML, binary, and in-memory stores out of the box, and you can also create your own if none of those suit.
- threeseed 3y agoCoreData is a derivative of the WebObjects' Enterprise Object Framework (EOF). They just tied it to SQLite whereas in the past it was a general ORM.
