[issue13445] Enable linking the module pysqlite with Berkeley DB SQL instead of SQLite
Lauren Foutz lauren.fo...@gmail.com added the comment: It is not possible to compile pysqlite to link with both, and even if it was it would not be a good idea, since databases created by bdbsql cannot be accessed by sqlite, and visa versa. Because of the incompatibility I think a runtime flag would lead to a lot of user error, but a separate connection class in the sqlite3 module might work, but because the libraries share the same external functions, linking them both with the python library will be difficult if not impossible.

[issue13445] Enable linking the module pysqlite with Berkeley DB SQL instead of SQLite
New submission from Lauren Foutz lauren.fo...@gmail.com: Before the pysqlite module was made standard it could be edited to link with Berkeley DB SQL instead of SQLite.

I am requesting that the Python build add the ability to link with BDBSQL instead of SQLite. Below is a description of how to link pysqlite with BDBSQL Download and unpack the latest version of pysqlite. Download and unpack the latest release of Berkeley Db (at least db-5.0 or higher). Build bdb using the following: cd db/build_unix ../dist/configure --enable-sql-compat --prefix=bdb install directory make make install Next change to the top pysqlite directory. There edit the file setup.cfg to the following: [build_ext] #define= include_dirs=bdb install directory/include library_dirs=bdb install directory/lib libraries=sqlite3 define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION Note, make sure you uncomment the lines with include_dirs and library_dirs Next, build and install the python sqlite3 library using: python setup.py build python setup.py install -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13445 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue13445] Enable linking the module pysqlite with Berkeley DB SQL instead of SQLite
Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment: Support for Berkeley DB (the bsddb) was removed from the standard library in Python 3 and replaced by a third-party module (bsddb3) listed in PyPI which is better able to keep up with changes in the various BDB releases. http://docs.python.org/py3k/whatsnew/3.0.html#library-changes http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bsddb3/ What would be the reason for bringing back a dependency on BDB into the standard library? Wouldn't this better be handled in the standalone pysqlite package? -- nosy: +jcea, ned.deily ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13445 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Lauren Foutz lauren.fo...@gmail.com added the comment: Berkeley DB SQL is a separate library from Berkeley DB. It is an SQL engine that uses the same API as SQLite and uses Berkeley DB as its backend. The modules that support Berkeley DB lack all of the SQL features and cannot be used to operate on a Berkeley DB SQL databases. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13445 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
