Though I haven't used sqlite but apparently you must have stored NULL once into the table and were storing it a second time which led to this error because this violated the primary key constraint. You could have COUNTed NULLs instead on ItemID using different values for other relevant columns to use GROUP BY to check the data yourself and see what was wrong. -- Asif - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -

[sqlite] integrity_check needs too much RAM on WinCE
Hello Folks, we are running a SQLite-Database(version 3.3.5) on a WinCE-device(version 4.2). The database is about 90 MB and resides on a USB-Stick. The database itself contains of about 500 records with BLOBs from 1KB to 100 KB. When we are running an "PRAGMA integrity_check" the device stops and says "Not enough Program-Memory" in a system-dialogue. So I assume, SQLite ate up all dynamic RAM for the check and cannot complete. Approx. how much RAM is needed for such a check? Can I prevent this? Is this influenced by the BLOB-size? Thanks a lot. -- Thomas Damme - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -
Re: [sqlite] integrity_check needs too much RAM on WinCE
Oh, maybe I should also tell you this: We set "page_size" and "cache_size" both at 8KB because it had the best performance on the device.

That's why we choosed this configuration. Though there are not many during regular usage. Anyway, thanks for the reminder. I read that during the development but it seemed to have no effect(beside the increased performance). We are experimenting with these values again right now.

[sqlite] benchmarking UTF8 vs UTF16 encoded databases
When I started using SQLite I found it natural to use the sqlite3_open16 and use UTF16 encoding on strings since my applications always use wchar_t when handeling strings. I never questioned this until now when I decided to do some benchmark, and I found it interesting enough to share with you. In my benchmark I used a database with several tables and indexes and the table I decided to benchmark contains 10 columns and 14000 rows with different types. It's a well normalized database that is used in a real life application. The benchmark is made on 2 different databases that are identical except for the fact that one is UTF8 encoded and the other is UTF16 encoded. I always get the 2 columns using sqlite3_column_text16 - so when getting the string from the UTF8 database - a conversion is made, but the output strings from both databases are always the same. The benchmark is looped 10 times for better average results. Benchmark 1: Selecting 2 columns from the table without any WHERE or ORDER BY UTF8.db0.38s UTF16.db 0.33s As expected the UTF16 encoded database is a little bit faster since no conversion is made. The difference is: 15% slower using UTF8 encoding. Benchmark 2: Selecting 2 columns from the table without and WHERE, but with ORDER BY on a text-column without any index (slow) UTF8.db 4.34s UTF16.db11.19s Well, this is a slow query. Sorting a UTF8 encoded string is obviously a lot faster than sorting a UTF16 encoded string. The conversion done by sqlite3_column_text16 is not noticeable in this benchmark. Difference: 66% faster using UTF8 encoding. Benchmark 3: Selecting 2 columns from the table without any WHERE, but with ORDER BY on text-column WITH index. UTF8.db 0.58s UTF16.db 0.63s Interesting. I guess the conversion done by sqlite3_column_text16 is not noticeable compared to the extra disk/mem IO for the extra data using UTF16. Difference: 8% faster using UTF8 encoding. In the future I am using UTF8 encoded databases since the conversion of strings is a small thing for the system. The advantages of using UTF8 are many: 1. Faster in most cases 2. Smaller databases (30% smaller in benchmark test database) 3. Less memory usage OR more information will fit in memory. I forgot to tell you that the benchmark is made on windows XP. The conversion done in sqlite3_column_text16 may be a lot slower/faster on any other platform. Best regards Daniel - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -
[sqlite] Sqlite version for libc 2.1.3
Hello all, I just recently started to use Sqlite3 version 3.5.2 on an ARM-LINUX based embedded platform. Sqlite3-v3.5.2. has a dependency on libc, ld and libpthread versions 2.2.3. My sorrow is that the rest of my application and the libraries on my ramdisk are of version 2.1.3. It doesn't seem to be a simple task to update the ramdisk and possibly other software to be compatible with the latest versions of these libraries. I was wondering if anybody knew if there exists an older version of sqlite3 which uses 2.1.3 versions of libc,ld and libpthread. Would be very grateful, if anyone could help with a version number and where I could download it from. Thanks in advance. Tara. - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -

Er.. it should depend on whatever versions you link it against when you cross-compile for your platform.

Well of course it comes at no surprise that if your database is primarily US-ASCII text, UTF-8 will be better. Smaller sizes mean smaller comparisons and more packed b-trees. UTF-16 is only good if you have a lot of text that would be encoded with >= 2 UTF-8 code units. -- Cory Nelson
[sqlite] Reported Error with SQLITE_MEMORY_SIZE
3.5.2 from the ZIP file, Compiled under Visual Studio 2005. Static Library SQLITE_OMIT_AUTHORIZATION SQLITE_OMIT_AUTOVACUUM SQLITE_OMIT_BLOB_LITERAL SQLITE_OMIT_DATETIME_FUNCS _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE SQLITE_MEMORY_SIZE=100 SQLITE_CORE A couple weeks ago I reported a crash when I used the SQLITE_MEMORY_SIZE=100 compile time setting. I've now gotten a chance to look at it further. The reply on the list was it's working fine. I have several small DB's that I vacuum during startup. In most cases the vacuum works perfectly OK with this setting and there are no crashes. There is one DB though that, during the vacuum, It gets to here int sqlite3BtreeRollbackStmt(Btree *p){ int rc = SQLITE_OK; BtShared *pBt = p->pBt; sqlite3BtreeEnter(p); if( pBt->inStmt && !pBt->readOnly ){ rc = sqlite3PagerStmtRollback(pBt->pPager); assert( countWriteCursors(pBt)==0 ); pBt->inStmt = 0; } sqlite3BtreeLeave(p); return rc; } If I look at the pPager, I see fd.methods is NULL but, jfd.methods and stfd.methods aren't NULL. ** Ticket #1171: The statement journal might contain page content that is ** different from the page content at the start of the transaction. ** This occurs when a page is changed prior to the start of a statement ** then changed again within the statement. When rolling back such a ** statement we must not write to the original database unless we know ** for certain that original page contents are synced into the main rollback ** journal.

I don't know the connection between the memory setting and the crash. The other DB's don't rollback during the vacuum which probably explains why they don't crash. I'm going to make a backup copy of the DB and then try to manually vacuum the file and see if the crashing goes away. I'm sitting in a hotel so, my connectivity is spotty. Sorry if any replies to the list are delayed till Saturday evening. C - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -
[sqlite] wrong version number when compiled
Hi all: I've just downloaded, compiled and installed SQLite3 3.5.2 on my mac. Everything is working fine but the version number. I know OS X 10.4 comes with SQLite built-in on /usr/bin. I installed 3.5.2 on /usr/local and updated my PATH so that is all right. Look at what I get: xabita:/ xabriel$ which sqlite3 /usr/local/bin/sqlite3 xabita:/ xabriel$ sqlite3 -version 3.1.3 As mentioned previously my PATH is all right: xabita:/ xabriel$ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin Something weird is that 3.1.3 is the version that my Mac has built-in: xabita:/ xabriel$ /usr/bin/sqlite3 -version 3.1.3 So, do somebody see what I am missing? thanks, regards, -- Xabriel J.
