Careful when using time. The bash built-in called time times 1 shell statement (including pipes). The binary in /usr/bin/time only times the command given - it does not span pipes. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > On Tue, Jul 29, 2008 at 02:15:54AM -0500, Robert Citek wrote: > >> Are you sure

Actually, the correct way would be to do make CC=compilername, although for most situations it may produce the same effect. Also, SQLite uses autotools, so it's just a matter of doing CC=compilername ./configure. You can find more info using ./configure --help. Also, for cross-compilation,

My question is how you're measuring the memory useage? Are you accounting for the space overhead of the various bookkeeping sqlite needs (i.e. master table)? The way you're creating you're table implies you're not using autoincrement for the integer field - are you accounting for the extra

Re: [sqlite] how to get file handle from sqlite3 object?

Two approaches - use sqlite, or use OS code. Use proper filesystem synchronization as appropriate for the given OS & filesystem, where you guarantee that your db copy is the only one that holds an exclusive lock. Then do the file copy and release the lock. The better approach, IMHO would be to

Can you please clarify why this would be needed? Sqlite databases are opened by name, thereby you can use standard OS or stdlib functions to open the same file with a different handle. Cyrus Durgin wrote: i'm wondering if there's a "standard" way to get an open file handle from an sqlite3

The only way I can think of doing it without modifying the table (i.e. adding a rowid column that's updated on every delete) is to select all the rows on the table and then increment count for every step that returns a row. Adam Megacz wrote: Hello. This is probably a stupid question, but...

http://www.sqlite.org/sharedcache.html It's controlled at runtime by the function int sqlite3_enable_shared_cache(int); Thus that behaviour is probably controlled by Firefox (assuming it uses a version of sqlite with cache support compiled in). You'd have to ask them. Jay Sprenkle wrote:

I'm fairly certain that it's because when you're saying ring_time > '10', it's asking sqlite to take all strings that are greater than the string '10'. So all the numbers you presented are greater than 1. What you want is "where ring_time > 10". Notice the lack of quotes which means treat
