Roger, It would be more accurate to say that SQL is a library which *can* live inside an application. Whether it actually does live inside it will depend on how one is using SQLite. When it is used as a "back-end" reached via middleware, such as the ADO.NET driver, SQLite does not live inside the client application. Quite a few users of SQLite these days are not wrapping the SQLite libraries in their own client app but are communicating with the database via a bridge as if it were a remote server engine.
The reason I bring this up is that your replies are sometimes colored by the assumption that one is using SQLite in library-mode, which may not be the case. Your opposition to my request several months ago for a raw reverse function was colored in this way. You did not acknowledge at the time that a raw-reversed (and hence possibly malformed) sequence of unicode codepoints could give middleware the hiccups, and insisted that it this reversal be done "in the application".
