Some of them (ex: the rollback journal) must be in the same directory as the database file in order to ensure recovery after a crash. On unix, SQLite consults the TMPDIR environment variable to get the directory for temporary files that are not in the same directory as the database. There are additional fallbacks if TMPDIR is not set. On windows, the GetTempPathW() interface is used to get the directory name. Either technique allows you, the sysop, to adjust the temporary directory location without recompiling. -- D.
