elj Sqlite: elj database interface Introduction elj Sqlite is an Eiffel interface to the SQLite C library. Details SQLite is a C library that implements an embeddable SQL database engine. Programs that link with the SQLite library can have SQL database access without running a separate RDBMS process. The distribution comes with a standalone command-line access program (sqlite) that can be used to administer an SQLite database and which serves as an example of how to use the SQLite library. SQLite is not a client library used to connect to a big database server. SQLite is the server. The SQLite library reads and writes directly to and from the database files on disk. Features: Implements a large subset of SQL92. A complete database (with multiple tables and indices) is stored in a single disk file. Atomic commit and rollback protect data integrity. Small memory footprint: less than 20K lines of C code. Four times faster than PostgreSQL. Twice as fast as SQLite 1.0. Very simple C/C++ interface requires the use of only three functions and one opaque structure. TCL bindings included. A TCL-based test suite provides near 100% code coverage. Self-contained: no external dependencies. Built and tested under Linux and Win2K. Sources are uncopyrighted. Use for any purpose Documentation for the moment is limited to the source code: Eiffel code: http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/lib/ifs/eiffel/sqlite/ http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/lib/dbs/ http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/lib/dbs/impl/sqlite/ C code - http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/lib/ifs/c/sqlite/ and an example: http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/examples/ifs/sqlite/ Note: For win32 users we provide the appropriate dll (sqlite.dll) and lib (sqlite.lib) files to work with the sqlite interface: http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/bin/win32/ http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/elj/elj-2002/bin/win32/lcc/ For Linux users (for the moment), you will need to download sqlite and compile for your system (alternatively it may already be configured to your system).
