Question, why as the encode and decode funtions been removed?
Did they perform badly, are there bugs? Caveats?
SQLite version 2.8 and earlier could not (easily) store binary
data - data with embedded \000 characters. Thus the encode/decode
routines were provide to transform data so that it contained no
\000 characters.
SQLite version 3.0 can store binary data without difficulty.
There is no longer a need to encode binary data prior to storing
it. The encode/decode became superfluous and were removed.
