The ooSQLite package has entire SQLite database engine embedded inside
it. So the programmer can not dictate which set of structs and APIs
it works with. It works with the set it was built with.
If you had a database written / used with ooSQLite version, say:
ooSQLite: ooSQLite Version 1.0.0.7897 (64 bit)
Built Jun 14 2012 16:47:20
Copyright (c) RexxLA 2012-2012.
All Rights Reserved.
Rexx: Open Object Rexx Version 4.1.1
SQLite: SQLite Library Version 3.7.13
2012-06-11 02:05:22
and SQLite moved on to say, version 5.8.9, that was no longer
compatible with the database file format, then Rexx programmers would
have to decide whether they wanted to move on to ooSQLite 3.55.10,
which has SQLite version 5.8.9 in it, or not.
The Rexx programmer would be faced with the same choices as any other
SQLite user would be faced with.
The name of the structs in SQLite is of no consequence to the Rexx
programmer. So, I don't really see a problem here.
