Well, that sounds like a rather silly argument. I thought the whole
idea of "embedded databases" is to get one application to access one
database at one time

i'm (still) trying to figure out why one would have an embedded database with multiple embedded apps attempting to talk to it... concurrently or otherwise... i would think that any kind of concurrent multiple access needs would be better served by a (dedicated?) database server...

i still find it amazing, though, that in today's world, so many opt to use a sql database of some kind even for smallish projects where a nice simple self-designed binary data file would suffice... in many cases, it is akin to swatting a fly with a hydrogen bomb ;)
