## SQL database drivers
A comprehensive discussion about SQL database drivers (Qt driver plugins as well as system drivers) can be found in [Qt Documentation](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sql-driver.html).
A comprehensive discussion about SQL database drivers (Qt driver plugins as well as system drivers) can be found in [Qt Documentation](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sql-driver.html). MSSQL is handled by the ODBC driver.
### Windows 10
* Both Qt SQL driver plugins should be already bundled with Qt SDK.
* System ODBC driver should be already bundled with Windows.
* System MySQL driver can be *installed* by placing `libmysql.dll` from [C API for MySQL (mysqlclient)](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/) in the app working directory.
* Both Qt SQL driver plugins (QMYSQL and QODBC) should be already bundled with Qt SDK.
* MySQL driver can be *installed* by placing `libmysql.dll` from [C API for MySQL (mysqlclient)](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/) in the app working directory.
* ODBC Driver Manager and SQL Server driver are built in; hence, no further installation is necessary. Alternatively, instead of SQL Server driver, one can use Microsoft ODBC Driver; see [Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/odbc/windows/microsoft-odbc-driver-for-sql-server-on-windows).
### Ubuntu 16.04
Packages with Qt driver plugins and system SQL drivers:
* MySQL - `libqt5sql5-mysql` `libmysqlclient20`,
* MSSQL/ODBC - `libqt5sql5-odbc` `libodbc1` `odbcinst` `unixodbc` `msodbcsql`__*__.
* ODBC ([unixODBC Driver Manager](http://www.unixodbc.org) and Microsoft ODBC Driver) - `libqt5sql5-odbc` `libodbc1` `unixodbc` `odbcinst` `msodbcsql`__*__.
