Are you proposing an implementation of the existing Embedded SQL standard?

Yes, a pre processor, but not a wrapper. A wrapper as I've seen from the sqlite.org site is simply a layer on top of the sqlite3 api. I've written my own wrapper. I'm really looking to see if instead of inserting an additional layer, the actual code could be compiled inline into the sourcing C file, thus a pre processor.
I'll give this a quick first pass when I get some free time, how difficult could it really be ?
would anyone be interested in this as a project?

his definition of an Sqlite operation and generate correct Sqlite3 API
calls.
An existing wrapper could well satisfy his requirement.

I not sure what you mean by preprocessor, but if you mean a
"stored procedure language", sqlite does not support an official one
within the database itself.
There are, however, dozens of bindings to computer languages
in addition to the Tcl wrapper that ships with sqlite:

Does a preprocessor exist for sqlite and if so where ?
If not that might be a really nice project to be able to support
syntax as follows:
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl login "dbname.db";
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl declar cursor c1;
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl prepare cursor c1 using sqlStr;
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl bind x .... (not sure about this one)....
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl fetch c1 into :hostvars ;
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl close cursor c1;
SQLITE_EXEC at :loginhndl close database
..... The list would go on and on, but you get the idea.
