Reading the release notes and documentation for SQLite 3.7.7, I noticed what I believe may be an oversight / minor problem with the URI filename support when using SQLite on a Windows platform.
The documentation clearly states that using an authority other than localhost is not permitted. However, AFAICT, the standard form of a file: URI on windows for a UNC path uses exactly that. For example, the UNC path \\darkstar\home\fred\data.db would map to the example invalid URI file://darkstar/home/fred/data.db in the documentation. Windows does accept file://\\darkstar/home/fred/data.db as an equivalent, but the APIs I've seen to automatically convert a file path to a file: URI will generate the former format which SQLite does not accept. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
