Small database handling library optimised for UITableView

23. 02. 2010

Hey Kids, today I want to tell you about library I wrote. It works like a tiny little database (without search), it is reusable within the application as all entries are stored in their own file. The entire library is based on NSArray (table) and NSDictionary (row).

This library should cover all the main functions everyone needs when working with tables, including easy reordering system. This library is not designed for large amount of data, but up to 100 items should be fine. Sorry for calling this thing a db but I’ve had no better idea ...
