Encrypt Sqlite with Qt using some open source solution

Question

My application is using Qt 4.6 to access sqlite. Now I have a requirement to encrypt sqlite database. On searching i do find SEE but this is licensed.

My problem is: I want to encrypt sqlite database using QT or some open source solution that is compatible with Qt. Do tell me some link or tutorial if you know.

Answer 1

Sqlcipher SQLite extension is what you need. Look into QTCentre about building sqlite version which supports encryption out of the box. The main benefit of this version that it provides standard qt sql interface via custom plugin. Also, it is BSD-like licenced.
