New submission from Marko Kohtala <marko.koht...@gmail.com>: The Windows builds seem to come with SQLite library version 3.5.9, as seen from sqlite3.sqlite_version. This is from 2008-May-12.
I've been using the sqlite3 module, but keep running into bugs on Windows. Replacing the DLLs\sqlite3.dll with a newer library (sqlite is going at version 3.6.23), seems to fix those problems. One problem was locking failures when performing a lot of changes and committing after each change. This happens within a single script accessing the file, apparently locking himself out. I did not want users needing to patch installed Python, so I got around that by removing the smaller commits and making one huge commit at end. Now I had a problem that ANALYZE does not result in good queries. Performing ANALYZE with newer library speeded queries significantly. I do not know how to get around that. On Linux I see Python 2.6 using sqlite 3.6.x versions, so I'd expect the reason for old library on Windows can not be incompatibility. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Windows messages: 106647 nosy: Marko.Kohtala priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: sqlite3 library outdated in Windows builds type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8842> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
