My second talk at the Adobe DevSummit Chennai was a 15 minute lightning talk on using SQLite in Adobe AIR. This is probably the fastest I’ve ever covered the topic but should still give you a good idea of what local database functionality is available when developing AIR applications.

Hi Mr Elst,
Sorry to use the blog to try and get some information, but you mentioned in your talks that SQLite is portable, however I’m having difficulty when it comes to BLOBs.
Do they have to be ByteArray’s when working in Air, because inserting an image in another application causes a crash when loaded up in an Air application. I’m finding it hard to find any extra information on Blob’s and you seem to be the best person to contact.
I apologise if this isn’t the best way to contact you, or get some information.
