Although your projects' new features seem similiar to the way SQLite currently operates, my guess is that perhaps you could reuse at most 20% of the code (btree and OS layers only) for your proposed code fork. It is not a minor undertaking, but a complete rewrite. You would spend more time re-examining each line of code's SQL-specific assumptions than you would by simply starting over using the SQLite code-base as a reference. > 5.

Implicitly index every column in every table at the expense of insert time and huge database size? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
