[sqlite] Atomic database structure initialization

2014-09-19 Thread Paul
My goal is to make structure initialization of an *abstract* database atomic. Why abstract is because I am dealing with C++ wrapper I am gonna use for several differents storages. All these storages  are accessed concurently, and if database file is missing it must be created and initialized.

There is also a PRAGMA user_version (see http://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_schema_version) which will let you store a number in the database header so you can keep track of what version of the "user schema" you have implemented in the database. Initially, when the database is created
