Hey... 640k memory ought to be enough for everyone! Maybe today, but historically....
I thought sqlite was originally designed and developed by Dr. Hipp so he could learn database technology? (SQL database stuff) Then after years and years and 3 versions later the thing has found it's way into all kinds of devices due to a unique design approach? As the code turns, it is now meeting up with all kinds of interesting complications to deal with, such as compile configurations to meet demands for individual. Although I have enjoyed working on C/C++ compilers and other systems software in the past (professionally), today I integrate business systems (professionally) and I prefer to NOT deal with such issues, and if I do, I like to have a nice document in front of me explaining to me what is going on. Encapsulation, or hiding your inerds is a really nice thing when it can be done. Of course you guys have been super helpful so thank you! Oddly enough, you would think for desktop Linux (Ubuntu) with the average pc carrying 2 gigs of ram today they would compile the dang thing with all configurations on. : - ) Guess I proved that one wrong. Maybe the config file should have a feature that checks the amount of RAM on a machine then turns all features if it is over say... 4 megabytes? hehe Almost seems now you need a sqliter.. but 300 million installs later can't be wrong.
