Why not implement a simple index file system like one of the DBase
derivatives? If you have no OS you will find porting something like
Sqlite or Berkely DB a challenge. If you are not looking for SQL then
you can achieve your goal in maybe 20K of memory.

Hi,
I'm looking at using Sqlite as a storage backend for a program. Using SQL is
a little bit overkill and much more than we need. How complicated would it
be to interface to the btree subsystem directly? Sqlite seems very modular
from the looks of it, but has anyone attempted anything like this before?
The functionality I need is key->value maps with support for lookup by an
exact key, insertion, iteration of all keys in the database, removal.
Transactions would also preferably be needed.
why bother with SQLite then? Use the right tool for the job -- use BerkeleyDB.

Size is a constraint for me.
I see that SQLite can be around 170KB where BerkeleyDB is around 500K.
I also see that the SQL statements can be converted to byte code.
Is this byte code more efficient that the SQL statement in code size?
I'm looking at embedding a DB of some type into a Single Board Computer with no
OS.
