InMemoryDataProvider Class

In This Topic

This data provider can be used to wrap existing datasources in an In-Memory SQLite database. Besides the performance gains (depending on the original data source) this also is a way to circumvent restrictions of the other providers. For example, by wrapping a CSV data provider into an in-memory database you get features like sorting, filtering etc. that are not available for a "pure" CSV data source. This also allows to define relations between different providers, e.g. a relation between a CSV file and an Excel data source.
