111 @section Drivers
112 
113 Drivers are loaded as plugins on demand by KDbDriverManager. The IDs, descriptions
114 and other details about drivers are given in their metadata by KDbDriverManager::driverMetaData().
115 The metadata is accessible without actually loading any driver.
116 
117 KDb supports two families of databases, file and network-based while providing a single
118 uniform API.
119 
120 Each database driver implements of three main classes KDbDriver, KDbConnection, KDbCursor.
121 The driver classes handle database-related specifics such as data types, naming and hide
122 them behind a general purpose API. The connection classes act as a proxy between the KDb API
123 and the native database. The cursor classes implement cursor functionality specific to
124 the native database at record level.
