REALbasic and SQLite?

Back a while ago I mentioned that Pineapple 0.4 was in the works and that it would require MySQL as it’s backend. Steve Jenson pointed me to SQLite, which I’d never heard of, as a possible alternative but it looked to me like it would have to be wrapped inside a REALbasic plug-in to work (the creation of which is beyond me).

Steve asked:

Doesn’t REALBasic have a decent FFI (Foreign Function Interface)? SQLite isn’t very complicated.

To which I can only reply: I have no idea what an FFI is. So if anyone (Steve?) would care to elaborate or if anyone’s managed to integrate SQLite with REALbasic, I’d love to hear from you.
