ship your own database plugin with your own SQLite library as illustrated above.
Some versions of SQLite can be forced to write a specific file format by setting
the \c{SQLITE_DEFAULT_FILE_FORMAT} define when building SQLite.

+ \section2 QSYMSQL for SQLite (Version 3 and Above) with Symbian SQL Database
+
+ \section3 General Information about QSYMSQL
+
+ QtSQL is the Qt module which allows clients to access SQL database services.
+ Database vendors can create QtSQL drivers for their database engines.
+ QSYMSQL driver enables to access the native Symbian database engine (“Symbian SQL”)
+ through the QtSQL API.
+
+ The main difference to QSQLITE is that, with Symbian SQL database client can specify a
+ set of access control policies when creating a new database with Symbian SQL security policies
+ within open() method call (security policy is defined with in the connection options).
+
+ See QSymSQLDriver::open(const QString & db, const QString &, const QString &, const QString &, int, const QString &conOpts)
+ description for detail information of policy settings.
+
+ Symbian RSqlSecurityPolicy class is a container for the security policies for a shared SQL database.
+
+ The container can contain:
+ security policies that apply to the database.
+ security policies that apply to individual database objects, i.e. database tables.
+
+ For the database, you use RSqlSecurityPolicy::SetDbPolicy() to apply a separate security policy to:
+ the database schema.
+ read activity on the database.
+ write activity on the database.
+
+ For database tables, you use RSqlSecurityPolicy::SetPolicy() to apply a separate security policy to:
+ write activity on each named database table.
+ read activity on each named database table.
+
+ More information about Symbian SQL and RSqlSecurityPolicy class reference about policy definitions,
+ can be found from Forum Nokia Library: http://library.developer.nokia.com/.
+
+ \section3 How to Build the QSYMSQL Plugin
+
+ Building QSYMSQL requires symbian platform, since it is using Symbian SQL database.
+
+ QSYMSQL is a dynamic plugin, which appears to available drivers list, when the binaries are build in.
+
+ The build sequence is similar to the QSQLITE plugin with installing the plugin in the standard location.
