The whole file-system interface is pluggable - at runtime if you compile with -DSQLITE_ENABLE_REDEF_IO, or at compile-time by default. Three different interface modules come with the code: Unix, Win32, and OS/2. It is not that much trouble to write a new one for your in-process read-only database. Use the other three OS interface modules as your guide. You can skip most of the implementation since you only need read-only. -- D.
