Are you perhaps thinking about CoreData? (Which sometimes uses
SQLite at its core.)
CFData is just a very simple object which contains a wad of bytes.
It doesn't do anything fancy.

Folks.
Can someone elaborate on the relationship between SQLite and
CFData. The docs suggest that CFData uses SQLite.
I have used SQLite with good results as a regular database, but
reading about CFData I can't really understand the relationship, it
looks to me that CFData just allows a user to create a 'data block'
of arbitrary size which presumably is automatically cached off disk
(via SQLite ?)
I am having trouble understanding whether CFData is designed to be
used *instead* of SQLite for the same type of job ? if so, I must
have missed some detail about how one would setup a 'multi-field'
relational database with CFData.
Perhaps its really not intended to do the same job, and the use of
SQLite for CFData is merely incidental.
Any comments ?
