I am interested in this as I have bug that I am sure is to do with some
sort of memory problem.
It only occurs when I run a procedure defined with sqlite3_create_function.
This procedure is not
in sqlite3.dll but in a VB6 ActiveX dll. I use the unaltered Windows
sqlite3.dll.
My question is if there is ever any need in this situation to run one of
the sqlite3 memory procedures, that is
sqlite3_free, sqlite3_malloc or sqlite3_realloc?
Currently I am not using this anywhere in my VB6 code.
Should I?

RBS
