Detailed Description

The QgsAbstractDatabaseProviderConnection class provides common functionality for DB based connections.

This class performs low level DB operations without asking the user for confirmation or handling currently opened layers and the registry entries, it is responsibility of the client code to keep layers in sync. The class methods will throw exceptions in case the requested operation is not supported or cannot be performed without errors.

QGIS 3.10
