SQLite is a small
|
|
C library that implements a self-contained, embeddable,
|
|
zero-configuration
|
|
SQL database engine.
|
|
Features include:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><ul>
|
|
<li>Transactions are atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable (ACID)
|
|
even after system crashes and power failures.
|
|
<li>Zero-configuration - no setup or administration needed.</li>
|
|
<li>Implements most of SQL92.
|
|
(<a href="omitted.html">Features not supported</a>)</li>
|
|
<li>A complete database is stored in a single disk file.</li>
|
|
<li>Database files can be freely shared between machines with
|
|
different byte orders.</li>
|
|
<li>Supports terabyte-sized databases and gigabyte-sized strings
|
|
and blobs. (See <a href="limits.html">limits.html</a>.)
|
|
<li>Small code footprint:
|
|
<a href="http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=SizeOfSqlite">
|
|
less than 250KiB</a> fully configured or less
|
|
than 150KiB with optional features omitted.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="speed.html">Faster</a> than popular client/server database
|
|
engines for most common operations.</li>
|
|
<li>Simple, easy to use <a href="capi3.html">API</a>.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="tclsqlite.html">TCL bindings</a> included.
|
|
Bindings for many other languages
|
|
<a href="http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=SqliteWrappers">
|
|
available separately.</a></li>
|
|
<li>Well-commented source code with over 98% test coverage.</li>
|
|
<li>Available as a
|
|
<a href="http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=TheAmalgamation">
|
|
single ANSI-C source-code file</a> that you can easily drop into
|
|
another project.
|
|
<li>Self-contained: no external dependencies.</li>
|
|
<li>Sources are in the <a href="copyright.html">public domain</a>.
|
|
Use for any purpose.</li>
|
|
</ul>

The SQLite distribution comes with a standalone command-line
|
|
access program (<a href="sqlite.html">sqlite</a>) that can
|
|
be used to administer an SQLite database and which serves as
|
|
an example of how to use the SQLite library.

Fix a long-standing bug that might cause database corruption if a
|
|
disk-full error occurs in the middle of a transaction and that
|
|
transaction is not rolled back.

The new VFS layer is stable. However, we still reserve the right to
|
|
make tweaks to the interface definition of the VFS if necessary.

newsitem {2007-Sep-04} {Version 3.5.0 alpha} {
|
|
The OS interface layer and the memory allocation subsystems in
|
|
SQLite have been reimplemented. The published API is largely unchanged
|
|
but the (unpublished) OS interface has been modified extensively.
|
|
Applications that implement their own OS interface will require
|
|
modification. See
|
|
<a href="34to35.html">34to35.html</a> for details.<p>
|
|
|
|
This is a large change. Approximately 10% of the source code was
|
|
modified. We are calling this first release "alpha" in order to give
|
|
the user community time to test and evaluate the changes before we
|
|
freeze the new design.

While stress-testing the
|
|
<a href="capi3ref.html#sqlite3_soft_heap_limit">soft_heap_limit</a>
|
|
feature, a bug that could lead to
|
|

|
|
corruption</a> was <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/tktview?tn=2565">

discovered and fixed</a>.
|

Though the consequences of this bug are severe, the chances of hitting
|
|
it in a typical application are remote. Upgrading is recommended
|
|
only if you use the
|
|
<a href="capi3ref.html#sqlite3_soft_heap_limit">sqlite3_soft_heap_limit</a>
