SQL Tree

By: fbuser

foo_uie_sql_tree is a foobar2000 component for viewing the media library in a tree structure using SQL queries. The component provides a panel for ColumnsUI or DefaultUI, which is a prerequisite for using this component.

The underlying database engine is SQLite provided by foo_sqlite, which is also a prerequisite for using this component, and with the exception of a few restrictions for building the tree queries the whole functionality of SQLite is supported.
